Check out this paper, and see how you can generate directory tree more realistically: Generating Realistic Impressions for File-System Benchmarking (http://www.usenix.org/events/fast09/tech/full_papers/agrawal/agrawal.pdf) > Synthetic Load Generator for NameNode testing -- Next Generation > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-408 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-408 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Test > Reporter: Robert Chansler > > A review of the Synthetic Load Generator identified several candidates for > improvement.
