In their own words
Filebench
Filebench is a Linux file system and storage benchmark for generating workloads and measuring I/O behavior. It supports micro- and macro-benchmarking, with random and sequential tests, IOPS measurement, and latency measurement. Its Workload Model Language (WML) lets users describe application I/O by defining filesets, processes, threads, and flow operations. Built-in workload personalities cover mail, web, file, and database servers, and predefined examples include webserver, fileserver, and mailserver workloads. Shipped workloads may not match a particular system's scale, so the documentation recommends copying and adjusting them. Filebench is free: its listed plan is free, with no usage limits stated. It runs on Linux and provides a command-line interface. The README describes building and installing it with configure, make, and sudo make install; yacc and lex are required. Questions, bug reports, and feature requests go to GitHub Issues. The project uses the Common Development and Distribution License (CDDL), Version 1.0.
