Oooh, that looks really nice, and so flexible too. I will definitely give it a try. On linux I'm running ubuntu 20 so it's an older version of fio by default, but I can definitely deal with that. I'm also running fio on windows too though, so unfortunatley it doesn't help there yet. Thanks very much for pointing me to this.
