Hi,
I was wondering whether there is any tool in linux that can be used to
simulate a slow file system ?
I would need this to test the application I am working on, since some
customers are not using fast machines (some are even using Windows with
encrypted file systems). I would add such a tool to the very nice set
of tools on linux like valgrind, sysprof and memprof...
While we are at it, any way to simulate a slow network ?
Thanks in advance
Emmanuel
Slow network: I'd think you can tell most network cards to run in
100Base-T or 10Base-T.
ifconfig eth0 media 10baseT ?
Slow disk: run using Xen or KVM? I'm not sure how much control you have
over the resources allocated, but I'd think slowing the processor would
go some way to simulating a system with a slow hard disk as it would
impact data transfer rates.
