WekaIO pulls some Matrix kung fu on SPEC file system benchmark

Apples and cheese?

So WekaIO needed 64 drives to Spectrum Scale/E8's 24 to get double the number of builds? We're not exactly comparing like with like here, are we? Frankly, I think we're going to see these records tumble for some time as vendors throw more NVMe hardware at the spec.

The old TPC specs for databases used to rate submissions on TPS/$ -- maybe SpecFS needs to go down the same road.

Also interesting to note that Spectrum Scale "walks all over" WekaIO on Overall Response Time, if that matters to anybody's workload...
