I am aware of the normal benchmark tools (bonnie, iozone etc etc) but what would like is something akin to : blah cp -r bigstuff location/ And have 'blah' report the time taken ( like 'time' does ), plus the K (or blocks) per second for both read and write. So I'm after something to tally the time spent on 'read()' and 'write()' operations more than I care for a real benchmark tool. Presumably such a tool could handle network traffic as that is also just a read/write call. Would process accounting or oprofile fit the bill there? I was thinking about a small 'C' app but if there is already something out there?
