------------------------------------------

Hi Wang Xu. Thanks for the link. I think people will find your scripting 
solution useful for testing HDFS directly without the MapReduce framework. 
What we want to achieve by this is to model the workload of a real cluster and 
test it on that load. MR is a part of testing for us.

> A stress-test tool for HDFS.

> It would be good to have a tool for automatic stress testing HDFS, which 
> would provide IO-intensive load on HDFS cluster.
> The idea is to start the tool, let it run overnight, and then be able to 
> analyze possible failures.
