add 4k random I/O benchmark

sassman commented 2 years ago

Could you pls elaborate why 4k is a good idea? Also, do you ask for an additional read benchmark?

Hi, 4k* random IO is one of the strengths of SSD's, and benchmarking this would show their IOPS capabilities.

This would be a read and a write benchmark. * 4k stands for a 4kB block size, maybe make this customizable, best case make it a heuristic based on the information provided from the disk (which is wrong sometimes though 🙈 )
