[Pvfs2-users] Benchmark with varied no. of files per process

Hello

I am looking for a benchmark which allows me to vary the number of files
written to/read from per process.

The benchmark should allow me to perform File-per-process parallel I/O
but vary the number of files [per process] and write this out to
multiple servers using a PFS such as PVFS

It doesn't matter if the benchmark is weak scaling [the total size
written out increases as you increase the number of files written out
per process] or if its strong scaling [the total size always remains the
same]

Could I have some recommendations

Thanks
Nirmal
