It takes some 35 SPECint92 to read -or write a file at a rate of 1MB/s using getc() and putc(). -The seek tests are dependent on the buffer cache size, since the fraction -of disk blocks that fits into the buffer cache will be found without any -disk operation and will contribute zero seek time readings. I.e. if the -buffer cache is 16MB and the Bonnie test file is 32MB in size, then the -seek time will come out as half its real value. The seek time includes -rotational delay, and will thus always come out higher than specified for -a drive. |
