bonnie++ is easy. By default, it tries to choose sane file sizes to avoid the effects of buffer caches. So all you need to do is this: # bonnie++ -d /path/to/filesystem I suggest creating the filesystems on the same partition. This means creating a new filesystem for each test, but since the performance of the disk varies depending on the location, not doing so can bias the results. You can see this by running the zcav tool included with the bonnie++ package. Also make sure as little as possible is running on the system while you're running the tests, too. Looking forward to those results! -Dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
