Summary:Exemplary methods, apparatuses, and systems determine whether a skip optimization process can be used to store a file in a storage space. When it is determined that the skip optimization can be performed, a file stored in the storage space can be referenced in a file metadata data structure using direct addressing of file blocks storing the file instead of through indirect addressing (e.g., pointer addresses stored in pointer blocks).
