Hello list,
I'm wondering how the configuration below is interpreted:
[global]
ioengine=libaio
direct=1
loops=1
numjobs=8
[write-prep]
rw=write
filename=/dev/sdb
iodepth=16
bs=16k
fill_device=1
stonewall=1
Will every one of the 8 jobs try to fill the device completely or will
they split the task of filling the device between themselves, where each
will do only 1/8 of filling the device? My reading of documentation
seems to suggest the device will be filled 8 times, with jobs, possibly,
stepping on each other's toes (i.e. contesting the same block), but I'm
not sure.
Best.
Oleg
