Explores response time vs. throughput tradeoff for I/O in MySQL. Argues that DBMS should maintain steady rather than bursty I/O request patterns to avoid idle I/O capacity. Describes a Linux implementation of prioritized I/O and measurements of its impact on MySQL's InnoDB.

Proposes to improve storage system performance allowing it to interpret some data written by a DBMS client. Types of interpreted information include log sequence numbers, block types, association of blocks with logical DB entities (tables, indexes), and access statistics explicitly generated by the DBMS to the storage system. Considers using this information in the storage system to ensure graceful degradation in case of device failures and to securely erase deleted data. Also considered extending the X-Ray [basi04] mechanism to improve the performance of the storage server cache.
