Method and system for identifying a preferred thread pool associated with a file system
A method for managing file systems, includes receiving, by a processor coordinator, a first operation request, identifying a file system associated with the first operation request, making a first determination that the file system is local, and in response to the first determination identifying a core thread pool associated with the file system, and directing operation of the first operation request to be executed on a core associated with the core thread pool, wherein the core is associated with a processor.

receiving, by the processor coordinator, a second operation request associated with the file system;
determining that the core exceeds a core usage threshold; and
in response to determining that the core exceeds the core usage threshold, determining that a second core thread pool is available, wherein the second core thread pool is associated with a second core, and wherein the second core is associated with the processor; and
in response to determining that the second core thread pool is available, directing operation of the second operation request to execute on the second core;
receiving, by the processor coordinator, a third operation request associated with the file system;
determining that the core still exceeds the core usage threshold; and
in response to determining that the core still exceeds the core usage threshold:
determining that there are no available core thread pools associated with the processor; and
in response to determining that there are no available core thread pools associated with the processor, directing operation of the third operation request to execute on a third core using a thread from a third core thread pool associated with the third core, wherein the third core is not associated with the processor; and
receiving, by the processor coordinator, a fourth operation request associated with a second file system;
determining that the second file system is not local; and
in response to determining that the second file system is not local:
identifying a second processor thread pool associated with the second file system; and
directing operation of the fourth operation request to execute on a fourth core in a second processor associated with the second processor thread pool using a thread from the second processor thread pool.
3. A processing coordinator configured to:
receive, by a processor coordinator, a first operation request;
identify a file system associated with the first operation request;
determining that the file system is local; and
in response to determining that the file system is local:
identify a core thread pool associated with the file system; and
direct operation of the first operation request to be executed on a core associated with the core thread pool, wherein the core is associated with a processor, wherein the core thread pool is one of a plurality of core thread pools associated with the processor, wherein the processor is associated with a processor thread pool, wherein each thread in the core thread pool is only executed on the core associated with the core thread pool, and
wherein each thread in the processor thread pool is executed on any core associated with the processor;
