Caching (1)
To look up /usr/ast/mbox requires the following
disk accesses:
1.Read the i-node for the root directory (i-node 1).
2.Read the root directory (block 1).
3.Read the i-node for /usr (i-node 6).
4.Read the /usr directory (block 132).
5.Read the i-node for /usr/ast (i-node 26).
6.Read the /usr/ast directory (block 406).
