NAME¶
blogbench - a realistic filesystem benchmark
SYNTAX¶
blogbench -d <directory>
DESCRIPTION¶
Blogbench is a portable filesystem benchmark that tries to
reproduce the load of a real-world busy file server.
It stresses the filesystem with multiple threads performing random reads,
writes and rewrites in order to get a realistic idea of the scalability and
the concurrency a system can handle.
OPTIONS¶
- --help
- Display a complete list of available switches.
EXAMPLES¶
The minimal way to run the test is to just give the path to an empty and writable directory:
blogbench -d /path/to/the/directory
Blogbench will start the required threads and the test will run during 5 minutes. A final "score" will then be given as an indication of read and write performance.
