# The benchmarks/fio port

## fio-3.19 – flexible I/O tester

## Description

    fio is a IO benchmarking tool that can simulate various user defined
    workloads. fio will spawn a number of threads or processes doing a
    particular type of IO action as specified by the user.  It takes a
    number of global parameters, each inherited by the thread unless other
    parameters given to them overriding that setting.  The typical use of
    fio is to write a job file matching the IO load one wants to simulate.
