> ReedSolomon encoding (n, k) has n storage nodes and can tolerate n-k failures. Regenerating a block needs to access k blocks. This is a problem when n and k are large. Instead, we can use simple regenerating codes (n, k, f) that does first does ReedSolomon (n,k) and then does XOR with f stripe size. Then, a single disk failure needs to access only f nodes and f can be very small.
