List,

Sorry if this has been done before - I'm sure I'm not the only person
interested in this, but I haven't found anything with the searches
I've done.

I'm looking to compare nfs performance between nfs on zfs and a
lower-end netapp filer. It seems like the only way to do this is to
measure this from the client side, but tools like iozone and filebench
seem to be oriented to measuring performance from a single client,
while I think that that doesn't work as a way to measure how many
operations can be done across multiple clients, eg. from a cluster.

Using filebench as an example, what I'm looking for is if there any
tools that extend filebench to work across multiple clients so that
the filesystem operations per unit time can be accounted for across
all of the clients instead of per-client summaries? 

Does any such project exist?

Thanks,

-Peter
