h5bench

h5bench is a suite of parallel I/O benchmarks or kernels representing I/O patterns that are commonly used in HDF5 applications on high performance computing systems. H5bench measures I/O performance from various aspects, including the I/O overhead, observed I/O rate, etc.

These are the benchmarks and kernels currently available in h5bench:

Benchmark	Name	SYNC	ASYNC VOL
