On windows runing 4kB random Writes to a ramdisk with numjobs=4 and
iodepth=64 FIO reports clat and lat maximums times that match the
runtime of the test. Changing the numjobs=1 and iodepth=1 yields max
latencies that meet expectations. As a further sanity test I ran
similar workloads using IOMeter with max response times that were in
line with expectations.
To reproduce:
1.Download and install the freeware version of Dataram ramdisk from
http://memory.dataram.com/products-and-services/software/ramdisk
2.Run FIO 2.0.9 with PhysD1_Fio_4kRandWr_4x64
3.Notice the max entries for clat and lat
4.For comparison run FIO with PhysD1_Fio4kRandWr_1x1
Attached are the FIO jobfiles, latency logs for the two FIO runs,
IOMeter ICF files, IOMeter csv files, and screenshots comparing
similar runs of FIO and IOMeter.
Thanks. I've replicated the problem and will work out what's going wrong.
