The spew package is used to test I/O performance and to generate load
|
|
on character devices, block devices, and file systems. It is similar
|
|
to the lmdd program found in the lmbench test-suite
|
|
(http://www.bitmover.com/lmbench). It is a bit easier to use than lmdd
|
|
and has some added functionality. For example, it can test both
|
|
random and sequential I/O.
