abstract = {The exponentially increasing amount of data in file systems has made it increasingly important for file systems to provide fast file-search services. The quality of the file-search services is significantly affected by the file-index overhead, the file-search responsiveness and the accuracy of search results. Unfortunately, the existing file-search solutions either are so poorly scalable that their performance degrades unacceptably when the systems scale up, or incur so much crawling delays that they produce acceptably inaccurate results. We believe that the time is ripe for the re-designing of a searchable file system capable of accurate and scalable system-level file search.},
