Request to add total IOPS for randrw workload in fio-plot

[jackeichen]

Usually a total IOPS is indicated in PCIe SSD's spec, it becomes more convenient to compare the performance between the test result and spec value.

Thank you for the clarification!

I have build this new feature in a separate branch "total". Do a git pull and then git checkout total should work.

There is a new option --draw-total that works with -g style graphs. It only works with randrw benchmark data. The -f (filter) parameter defaults to 'read write' which is what we want but you can set it explicitly.

I had a folder with benchmark data and ran this command:

fio-plot -i . -T "TEST" -r randrw -g -t iops --draw-total

I don't have a way to 'only' draw the total and not the separate read / write data but at least we have a total. If there's any feedback it's welcome.

Thanks for the improvement!
