Rui Li commented on HDFS-8968:
------------------------------
Hi [~drankye], the tool is intended to test and compare throughput of EC and
replication mode. And it does require some EC APIs to run, e.g.
{{DFSClient::setErasureCodingPolicy}}. So I didn't give it a general name. Let
me know if you think otherwise.
> New benchmark throughput tool for striping erasure coding

> Issue Type: Sub-task

> We need a new benchmark tool to measure the throughput of client writing and
> reading considering cases or factors:
> * 3-replica or striping;
> * write or read, stateful read or positional read;
> * which erasure coder;
> * striping cell size;
> * concurrent readers/writers using processes or threads.
> The tool should be easy to use and better to avoid unnecessary local
> environment impact, like local disk.
