When there is no seek time it does matter (e.g. SSD). To testcommand perf with a normal HD, excercise the disk cache withthis fio command line:/root/fio --runtime=30 --time_based --bwavgtime=5000 --thread--numjobs=1 --iodepth=1 -rw=randrw --norandommap -overwrite=1--direct=1 --ioengine=sync --ioscheduler=noop --bs=4k --size=4k--name=hd_sdc --filename=/dev/sdc
and will get output which contains something like:hd_sdc: (g=0): rw=randrw, bs=4K-4K/4K-4K, ioengine=sync, iodepth=1Starting 1 threadJobs: 1 (f=1): [m] [96.7% done] [ 18381/ 17705 kb/s] [eta 00m:01s]hd_sdc: (groupid=0, jobs=1): err= 0: pid=17079  read : io=528344KiB, bw=18476KiB/s, iops=4510, runt= 29281msec    clat (usec): min=82, max=131, avg=93.11, stdev= 1.67  write: io=527792KiB, bw=18235KiB/s, iops=4452, runt= 29637msec    clat (usec): min=84, max=209, avg=93.88, stdev= 1.60...     lat (usec): 100=99.60%, 250=0.40%...
The drive/controller config reports almost 9000 iops from a single drive.This compares well with existing SSDs on the market.
And looks like fio needs better granularity in it's latency buckets.
