Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

There is currently a lot of delta between the documented options
of maintainer manual pages of the different ib_<verb>_<test>
commands, which are timestamped as dating back from 2008, and
the wealth of options currently reported by the commands' --help
output.  I have been banging my head wondering how to change
some test parameters until I noticed the newer options while
browsing through perftest source code.

Depending on what is the easiest for you, I think it would be
welcome to see the manual pages refreshed, or at least have a
prominent SEE ALSO section strongly stating that the information
in the manual may be outdated, and one should preferably refer
to --help for the complete list of options.

Have a good day,  :)
