[Pvfs2-developers] Suggested testing for bmi_mx?

[Scott Atchley]

Hi Murali,

I just ran IOR using a server using ramfs (output below).

I searched the pvfs2 lists for existing IOR scripts and the only  
thing I found was the mpi-io scripts. I will test those next, but I  
was wondering if you had other IOR scripts in mind.

% ./src/C/IOR -W -f scripts/test
IOR-2.9.2: MPI Coordinated Test of Parallel I/O

Run began: Mon Jan 29 14:17:37 2007
Command line used: ./src/C/IOR -W -f scripts/test
Machine: Linux fog34

Summary:
         api                = POSIX
         test filename      = /mnt/pvfs2/testFile
         access             = single-shared-file
         clients            = 1 (1 per node)
         repetitions        = 1000
         xfersize           = 1 MiB
         blocksize          = 10 MiB
         aggregate filesize = 10 MiB

access    bw(MiB/s)  block(KiB) xfer(KiB)  open(s)    wr/rd(s)   close 
(s)   iter
