(40 pts) Assume a web servers cache achieves a hit rate of 90%, where servicing a request from its cache (hit) costs only 4 microseconds of CPU time while servicing a request from its NVMe SSD (miss) requires an additional 10 microseconds of disk I/O time. What is the throughput of this web server in terms of the number of requests that it can handle per second if it is
(a) (20 pts) single threaded?
(b) (20 pts) two-threaded but running on a single core/processor machine?
