Well ... you *might* create a big file on the filesystem, then use losetup to bind it to a block device, and *then* use hdparm on that loopback device. ;-) Opinion ... I've never found any use for filesystem performance measurement in audio applications ... it has never been the critical path for me. As soon as the total data flow approaches the limit imposed by the filesystem, then anything can cause a pause ... even a disk drive thermal recalibration or a response to excessive vibration. Such things cause a momentary delay, and if I'm trying to use the disk the filesystem I'm using won't matter at all. -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
