The test is 'postmark'. It is in /usr/ports/benchmarks, but the distribution is a single C file. Just compile it with: gcc -O -o postmark postmark.c on all of the systems. That's what the port uses.

The options you are interested in are: set transactions 10000 <-- What I used for all of my tests set number <number of starting file in the directory to test> set location /path/to/empty/local/directory run To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
