Write the expressions for balanced bounds on the system throughput and response time of the system of Exercise 33.6 and compute the bounds for up to N = 5 users.
Exercise 33.66
For the system of Exercise 33.5, answer the following:
a. What is the bottleneck device?
b. What is the minimum average response time?
c. What is the maximum possible disk A utilization for this configuration?
d. What is the maximum possible throughput of this system?
e. What changes in CPU speed would you recommend to achieve a response time of 10 seconds with 25 users? Would you also need a faster disk A or disk B?
f. Write the expressions for asymptotic bounds on throughput and response time.
