Using a larger block size in a fixed block size file system leads to
- A. better disk throughput but poorer disk space utilization
- B. better disk throughput and better disk space utilization
- C. poorer disk throughput but better disk space utilization
- D. poorer disk throughput and poorer disk space utilization
Answer: A. better disk throughput but poorer disk space utilization
Explanation: Larger blocks reduce the number of I/O operations (overhead) improving throughput, but increase internal fragmentation (wastage) for small files.
