I answered in other thread how exactly integrity check looks like and why the name might be misleading. I'm also in the middle of updating descriptions to be more adequate. Thanks for pointing that out.

Speaking about standard industry metrics.

fio is an established tool, and throughput, IOPS, fsync latency, and percentiles are standard concepts. However, the exact job recipes and the composite “Overall Core” score are project-specific.

The trivial-operation test is also custom: one 4 KiB write plus fsync every 200 ms. The idle window contains at most about 50 operations, so its p99 is effectively the slowest sample’s fio histogram bucket, not a statistically stable population percentile. It should be treated as a small-write durability-latency probe, not a universal application metric.

But after all all tests are in the repository. If they need tweaks, changes I'm open to do so... I started from scratch and did whatever came to my mind. Some tests are added after my initial link here which went mostly unnoticed several weeks ago but I got some requests for more tests which I implemented.

But to sum up. I want this test to be useful so feel free to open PRs with improvements. It's not like I've got some agenda. In fact I wrote here and there on the page that I'm counting on communities of various filesystems to provide improvements, changes etc to make their filesystem shining.

This is personal project made when I realized that multiple-devices benchmarks were almost completely absent. Since I had not access to real hardware I decided to make at least initially everything based on GH runner with all the limitations that came with this approach. I tried to limit these limitations as far as I could. But feel free to submit bugreports, PRs, propositions for improvements.
