A distributed object storage system comprising performance optimizations

摘要

The invention concerns a distributed object storage system (1) that comprises an encoding module (400) that is configured to: - Calculate for a plurality of predetermined values of said spreading requirement the cumulative size of said sub fragment files (700) when stored on said file system with said predetermined block size; and - Select as spreading requirement from said plurality of predetermined values a calculated value that is equal to one of said predetermined values for which said cumulative size is minimal.
