Reading a Set of Disk Pages
Summary: Reading a set of disk pages reduces to a shortest-path problem on a graph; nearby pages can be read together, even with gaps. A simple approximation is near-optimal; it derives the expected cost and shows buffering with large reads yields speedups. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
