To all those interested in FileBench, I have been working on a syntax and implementation approach for adding a new type of variable, called the Random Variable, to FileBench. A Random type Variable returns a value from a defined random distribution with each access. The proposal is at:
http://www.solarisinternals.com/wiki/images/1/1d/FileBench_Random_Variables.pdf (You can also get there from the Filebench_News page on SolarisInternals.com) The document discusses several design alternatives, concluding with my own opinion of which is the best overall approach. I'd appreciate any comments from the community about this proposal. Drew Wilson _______________________________________________ perf-discuss mailing list perf-discuss@opensolaris.org
