[Storage-research-list] Are there any block-level trace-driven benchmarks available on the Linux 2.6 platform?

[ray smile]

Thank you for your information.

One of the authors of SPEK, told me that  , there is a software tool
can do the work I need. That is, blktrace, a block-level trace and
trace-replay software. However, it has its own trace format, other
formats of the traces can be not directly replayed.
