Filebench is a file system and storage benchmark that allows
to generate a high variety of workloads. It employs extensive
Workload Model Language (WML) for detailed workload specification.
Features
* Extensive Workload Model Language (WML) for workload specification
* Includes popular pre-defined workloads: webserver, fileserver,
varmail, etc.
* Reports throughput and latency histograms
Changes since version 3.397:
Revision 3.408
Bug fix for clobbering of buffer. "tfile" needed to be bigger, as its
address was loaded into filearray[] and then that was overwritten
by the mfflag causing parsed names to get loaded.
Revision 3.407
Work around for cache_line_size suddenly becoming zero and breaking fetchit()
Revision 3.406
Increase buffer size for configuration lines. They might be 700 chars long.
Revision 3.405
Reduce CPU consumption in the op_rate control mechanism.
Revision 3.404
Fix type-oh in usage message.
Revision 3.403
Add -+W to permit chid_skew. This permits adding files, and continuing
the proper sharing/dedup within each quadrant, within same seed group
and with previously existing files that were created with a different
number of threads.
Revision 3.402
Mods for DragonFly support.
Revision 3.401
bug fix for re-write rec.
Revision 3.398
Adding thread_read_test and thread_write_test.
The update from version 3.308 to 3.397 broke DragonFly 11 days after I
fixed it due to missing a macro change. An integer redeclaration was
also removed.
DESCR:
The Phoronix Test Suite is the most comprehensive testing and benchmarking
platform available for the *nix operating system. This software is designed
to effectively carry out both qualitative and quantitative benchmarks in a
clean, reproducible, and easy-to-use manner.
It appears that the authors of Iozone tried to add DragonFly support without
actually building it. The configuration was broken, and the iozone.c
was uncompilable. With the two modified patches, it will compile now, and a
quick check using "iozone -a" seemed to work as expected.
No PKGREVISION bump necessary.
Despite several additional patches, postal 0.62 wouldn't compile on
DragonFly (broke on stl vectors), so upgrading the package was the
most effective approach to restore this package.
License updated in Makefile.
Summary of changes since version 0.62
=====================================
0.65 Significant improvement, many new features and many bugs fixed!
0.66 Made GNUTLS work in BHM and added Messageld to Postal
0.67 Changed license to GPLv3
0.68 Fixed compiler warnings on GCC 4.3, make it work for OpenSolaris
0.69 Fixed compiler warnings and more GCC 4.3 compatibility work
0.70 Updated man pages and allowed build without SSL support
This commit fixes the run-libmicro command which was broken for all
platforms. It was pointing at the destdir version instead of the
installed version.
It also provides a DragonFly-specific makefile which enables it to
build and run on DragonFly.
part of, a new upstream version, but I need to talk to some people first.
(I'm keeping this separate from the previous update in case it breaks stuff.)
Changes:
roll in parts of patch-aa and patch-aq;
roll in all of patch-ar and patch-src_memsize_c;
make the ARM-only adjustment from patch-ar universal;
add enough volatile to make 'mhz' work more or less properly again;
fix the loop calibration to bail out instead of spinning forever
if things go too fast (e.g. because the compiler's optimized out
the benchmark loop);
various hacking and modernization to get sort of a clean compile;
fix some non-stdc stringifying macros;
hopefully advance the clang build a bit further.
