Description
Reliable benchmarking of file systems is a complex and time consuming task when one has to test against a production environment to achieve relevant results.
In case of the HEP community, this eventually leads to setting up a particular experiments' software environment, which could be a rather complicated task for a system administrator.
To simplify this task, we developed an application for exact replaying of IO requests to reliably replicate an IO behavior of the original applications without a need of installing the whole working environment.
Using the application, we present performance comparison of Lustre, GPFS and Hadoop file systems by replaying traces of LHCb, CMS and ATLAS jobs.
