Nice work Erwan.

I am doing this myself, using FIO + perl (to parse the data) + gnuplot.

I am testing drives from multiple vendors and graphing the following attributes over different blocksize + io queue depth + different read / write pattern and % distribution:

o iops
o bandwidth
o latency (max and avg)

I will look at your work.

Hopefully, this doesn't msg doesn't get bounced by the mailinglist server as I am using Gmail thru the browser.

Nice work Erwan.

I am doing something similar to what you are doing, using FIO + perl (to parse the data) + gnuplot.

I am testing drives from multiple vendors and graphing the following attributes over different blocksize + io queue depth + different read / write pattern and % distribution:

o iops
o bandwidth
o latency (max and avg)

As an example, I am overlaying multiple drives for each attribute (y-axis) at fixed io queue depth over different block size (x-axis).

I will look at your work.

Resending using plain text... Hopefully, this works.

Feel free to play with it !

That would be lovely to see people using it or extending its capabilities.
I'm sure many are doing this stuff on their own. It would be nice to share this work to get a very good tool that works for many.

Cheers,
Erwan

Definitely, I will see what I can contribute as I am very new at fio, just using a couple of weeks ago. Let see how that goes - it will be really first open source project. :)

I wish I knew your project sooner. I think I would have save quite a bit of effort. At this pt, I think I am locked in my path because of deadline.
