Demartek Shares Benchmark Output File Formats - FIO

For each test tool, we show a snapshot of the data at the beginning of the file and at an address a fair distance into the file. The snapshots were taken from our favorite text editor, UltraEdit, from IDM Computer Solutions, Inc. There are three columns of data in these snapshots:

First column: address (hexadecimal) within the file
Second column: hexadecimal values for each byte of the data in the file
Third column: character values for each byte of the data in the file

There are two sample images shown below. They were taken from the same file but from different locations within the file.

This FIO sample was taken using the default asynchronous I/O option.
