I/O
System communication channels
I/O stands for input/output, referring to communication between a computer system and the outside world—users, other devices, or storage.
Input is data coming in (keyboard strokes, mouse clicks, file reads); output is data going out (screen displays, printouts, file writes).
The program is slow because of I/O bottlenecks.
I/O operations are often the limiting factor in system performance.
