Compare the throughput of FSCAN with that of SCAN.

What will be an ideal response?

The throughput of FSCAN will be slightly lower than that of SCAN, because FSCAN
skips over easy-to-service requests that arrive during the current sweep. This illustrates how
disk scheduling goals can be in conflict with one another: FSCAN offers a smaller variance of
response times than SCAN, but SCAN offers better throughput.
