[Devil-linux-software] [fmII] bonnie++ 1.94 released (Default branch)

[<no...@fr...>]

This email is to inform you about the release of version '1.94' of
'bonnie++' through freshmeat.net. All URLs and other useful information can
be found at

    http://freshmeat.net/projects/bonnie/

The changes in this release are as follows:
The program now works correctly with 64-bit file access (which means
bonnie++ should work correctly on machines with more than 1G of RAM).
Zcav support now skips chunks of the disk to give a faster result
(some modern disks can take several hours for a single pass
otherwise). All units were changed to GiB and MiB. The zcav output
units were changed to match the new bigger and faster disks.  

Release focus:
5 - Major feature enhancements 

Project added:
Fri, Mar 17th 2000 10:30 (8 years, 5 months ago)

Project description:
Bonnie++ is based on the Bonnie hard drive benchmark by Tim Bray. The
most notable features that have been added are support for >2G of
storage and testing operations involving thousands of files in a
directory. This program is used by ReiserFS developers, but can be
useful for anyone who wants to know how fast their hard drive or file
system is. It now includes ZCAV in the package. This program tests the
performance of different zones on the hard drive. ZCAV has been
released separately before but will now only be released as part of
the Bonnie++ suite.
