Yes, you will have 2x $nthreads thread in this workload, with a 50/50 read/write. > is there any easy way to specify a 60/40 workload (60% reads, 40% > writes)? i imagine i could just code up 10 separate threads under the > "process", 6 to do reads, 4 to do writes? > At the moment, the easiest way to do that is create 3 flowops that do read and 2 that do write within the thread... > > side question for future requests... should i be sending question to > this alias or the opensolaris one?
