Besides results tend to very a lot, there is no way to set seed value like in fsx, so that I could run exactly the same test in different configurations. I prefer to use blogbench for stability testing.
fsx is a different beast, it reads/writes/truncates at random offsets - great tool for debugging mmap/truncate issues. Patch doesn't improve it in any way. > > _______________________________________________ > [email protected] mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]" _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
