A file system provides a hierarchical approach to storage of file data. Logically contiguous bytes of file data are stored in stream data structures, and streams which hold related file data are stored in a variable sized onode data structures on disk. The variable-sized onode data structures are stored in fixed sized buckets, and the buckets are organized into a variable sized array. Thus, the file system provides a combination of variable-sized storage with fixed-sized storage to provide a very efficient approach to storing file data. In addition, indexes may be provided within the structures to allow quick access to onodes and streams.
