(CC'ing in the fio list) direct=1 isn't tied to libaio in any way, and OSX should support it. Not quite sure how unbuffered IO is done on OSX, perhaps others can chime in here. On some operating systems, it's only supported on specific device types or certain file systems. -- Jens Axboe -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe fio" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
