Greetings, Zach Brown pointed me to Btrfs after I published my own flawed attempt to benchmark the too many files problem on GNU/Linux.
Bonnie++ is a popular tool to benchmark FS performances but it's hard to extend. As an example, I wanted to measure the impact of path hashing and I would have had a hard time doing that with bonnie++. Is there a need for a unified benchmarking system with easy to write plugins? I think so. Over time, more plugins would be added and the overall measurement would become less (more?) flawed. But I digress. On your benchmark page [1], most tests have detailed methodology. Aside from those, what benchmark tools do you use to compare the performance of Btrfs with that of other file systems?
