Please post your block device benchmark script here. I'm looking for a wide range of benchmark methodologies, so your script should test in a different way than the other scripts.

P. Constantino

#!/bin/bash
# This script generate random numbers and seeks to that POSITION on the block device given, reading 1 kb of data at the time. 
# The purpose is test the speed of randomly reading 1024(default) blocks of 1KB from the disk.
# A valid input for BLOCK DEVICE could be: /dev/sdb (disk) - /dev/sda9 (partition) - /dev/md8 (RAID) - /dev/mapper/foo/bar (LV).
echo -n "Enter a number of block to read. Enter for default(1024): "
read BLOCKS 
if [ "$BLOCKS" = "" ]
then
   BLOCKS=1024
fi
echo -n "Enter a valid block device (dev/): "
read BLOCKDEVICE
SIZE=$(df /dev/$BLOCKDEVICE | awk '{print $3}' | grep -v 'Used')
time -p for ((x=1; x<=$BLOCKS; x++))
	do 
		POSITION=$(( RANDOM % $SIZE + 1))
		dd if=/dev/$BLOCKDEVICE of=/dev/null bs=1k count=1 seek=$POSITION
		sync
		echo 3 >/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
	done	
echo "  ^ time to process randomly $BLOCKS blocks of 1KB on /dev/$BLOCKDEVICE."
