ABSTRACT:
A discrimination method and apparatus for determining when data should not be cached. Under certain conditions, caching of data is less likely to improve access time, (e.g., when the transfer rate is already exceeding a critical sustained throughput rate; when an estimated time to complete a CD-ROM data request is within a specific percentage of the estimated time to complete a hard drive disk request).
