Abstract
A method of copying at least first and second files stored in a client computing device to a host server, includes the steps of: generating at the host server a first read I/O request for data of the first file based on responses to pre-read I/O requests for the first file, received from the client computing device; transmitting a merged I/O request that includes the first read I/O request for data of the first file and pre-read I/O requests for the second file from the host server to the client computing device; generating at the host server a second read I/O request for data of the second file based on responses to the pre-read I/O requests for the second file, received from the client computing device; and transmitting the second read I/O request for data of the second file from the host server to the client computing device.
