lat_fs - measure file system create/delete performance
SYNOPSIS
lat_fs [ dir ]
DESCRIPTION
lat_fs is a program that creates a number of small files in the current
working directory and then removes the files. Both the creation and
removal of the files is timed.
OPTIONS
If dir is specified, lat_fs will change to that directory first and do
the creates and deletes there. Otherwise the creates and deletes are
done in $PWD.
OUTPUT
The results are in terms of creates per second and deletes per second
as a function of file size. The output is in 4 column form and is the
size of the file, the number created, the creations per second, and the
removals per second. Output format looks like:
0k 500 1304 2740
1k 500 904 1663
