Problem solved!
All results looks good to me.
Thank you very much,
Frank

Hi Jens,
thanks for getting back to me.
I've rebuilt with the latest but I still see problems with the numbers.

I do see one improvement,
the "% done" printed while the test is in progress now increases nicely
from 0% to 100%
whereas before it would jump around to seemingly random values between
0% to 100%

I wonder is it picking the wrong set of numbers to print in some cases.
eg. from a test with 2 jobs that runs for 23 seconds I faound the
following in normal output ...

when run standalone on a 32-bit VM I see this for a "rw=randread" job
   read : io=47106B, bw=2047B/s, iops=1023, runt= 23001msec
whereas when the same test is run from  64-bit client to 32-bit server I
see this for the same job
   trim: io=98789GB, bw=1000/s, iops=0, runt=98784247808000msec
so it says "trim" where it should say "read"

and for the 2nd job which is "rw=write"
when run standalone on a 32-bit VM I see this
   write: io=34502B, bw=1500B/s, iops=750, runt= 23001msec
whereas when the same test is run from  64-bit client to 32-bit server I
see this for the same job
   read : io=148185GB, bw=1500/s, iops=750, runt=98788542775296msec
so it says "read" where it should say "write"

In the same test run, the following results are identical when run both
ways ...
Run status group 0 (all jobs):
    READ: io=46KB, aggrb=1KB/s, minb=1KB/s, maxb=1KB/s, mint=23001msec,
maxt=23001msec
   WRITE: io=33KB, aggrb=1KB/s, minb=1KB/s, maxb=1KB/s, mint=23001msec,
maxt=23001msec
so these results look correct.

All the above problems are only seen when run from 64-bit client to
32-bit server,
no problems seen when running standalone,
and no problems seen when running 64-bit client to 64-bit server.
Try updating again. Not sure I caught all of them, so would be nice to
know how it works now.
