Hello Alexandru, So iff you are solely interested in the latencies, why not using the Linux' time command from the shell. Just use the Hadoop CLI to get your file, try this from several nodes from various racks for differing files from your cluster and build a Confidence Interval for the time it took to retrieve each file from any node & rack.
Otherwise, a more holistic approach was to use this project: epaulson.github.io/HadoopInternals/benchmarks.html Its Ohio State Infiniband benchmark contains latency information on sequential and random writes on Read and Write operations and more. Hope this helps… Kind regards, Daniel.
