h1. Search prototype 

 directory : source:/prototypes/03_Search 

 h2. Goals 


 * Search with glob pattern. 
 * Measure the time for searching among 50'000 files. There is always two measures to test the caching capacity of the OS. 
 ** A solution is to generate randomly empty files and folders and create an iso with it which will be stored in the repo. 
 * If time is above 1 minute for the first time and above 3 seconds for the seconds then an another solution must be found like an indexing system. 


 




 h2. Setup 

 The file source:/prototypes/03_Search/files.iso contains about 50'000 files and can be mounted with the command @mount -o loop files.iso files@. The directory _files_ must be created prior. 


 h2. Reference times 

 Here is some reference times given by the _find_ command.
