./reaim -s100 -e2000 -t -j100 -i100 -f workfile.high_systime The reaim.config file contains: FILESIZE 10k POOLSIZE 1m DISKDIR /t0 DISKDIR /t1 DISKDIR /t2 DISKDIR /t3 DISKDIR /t4 DISKDIR /t5 DISKDIR /t6 DISKDIR /t7 DISKDIR /t8 DISKDIR /t9 DISKDIR /t10 DISKDIR /t11 DISKDIR /t12 DISKDIR /t13 DISKDIR /t14 DISKDIR /t15 The way Longman uses this is to create 16 ramdisk filesystems through /dev/ram* and then mount those filesystems to the /t* directories. Although you could run it through a regular filesystem also. It will use whatever you place in the reaim.config file as DISKDIR. You can specify one or more DISKDIR directories.
