Benchmarking Working Group

News from the BWG: Greetings, On behalf of Davesh and myself, I would like to thank you for your past support of the OpenSFS Benchmarking Working Group. There will be a conference call for the BWG Friday, March 4, at 2pm Eastern Time (Dial-in 877-507-0723, passcode: 9927187#). We anticipate that it will be our last. Time pressures on the members of the BWG have resulted in very low attendance at the conference calls. As an alternative forum for dicussing benchmarking issues and asking questions may we suggest: - The Lustre-discuss mailing list http://lists.lustre.org/listinfo.cgi/lustre-discuss-lustre.org - The Lustre IRC http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=lustre If you feel strongly that biweekly conference calls should continue, please do speak up. If you have any questions about the BWG or about benchmarking open source, parallel, scalable file systems in general do not hesitate to contact us: Andrew C Uselton  Davesh Tiwari  Cheers, The BWG co-chairs
