Description-en: flexible I/O tester - gui frontend
fio is a tool that will spawn a number of threads or processes doing a
particular type of I/O action as specified by the user. fio takes a
number of global parameters, each inherited by the thread unless
otherwise parameters given to them overriding that setting is given.
The typical use of fio is to write a job file matching the I/O load
one wants to simulate.
.
This package contains the GTK+ based gui frontend for fio. The package
fio contains the command line version of fio which acts as a backend
to the GUI frontend. The frontend can talk to a locally or remotely
running fio server.
