Abstract

See full text

A method for execution by a dispersed storage and task (DST) processing unit includes generating a first access request for transmission via a network to a first one of a plurality of storage units in a dispersed storage network (DSN). A first access response is received via the network from the first one of the plurality of storage units that includes a first access time duration. Access duration data is updated to include the first access time duration received from the first one of the plurality of storage units. A subset of storage units is selected from the plurality of storage units based on comparing a plurality of access time durations corresponding to the plurality of storage units included in the access duration data to perform a second data access. At least one second access request is generated for transmission via the network to the subset of storage units.
