radamsa test case selection could be more flexible #51

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
radamsa --subset and -m <n>mb could be extended, and possibly merged, to do 
some useful things automatically by having something like

 $ radamsa -m 10mb --truncate subset|truncate|auto

meaning pick 1-n files until the memory limit is hit, take all but use weighted 
tail truncation (current default), or combine both. a nice extra feature would 
be 'heuristic', which uses some technique to probably pick distinct kinds of 
samples, for example by using shared substrings of first 4Kb of data to 
partition data below nfiles/X, and then pick n files from the buckets randomly.

0.2 no longer uses trunctation, so this is deprecated
