Hi Andrew, Daniel!
Just recompiled test2-mm4 and I tested it with:
time iozone -f hello.data -i 0 -s 50000 -r 1 -I
(-I enables O_DIRECT, I straced it and fopen has O_DIRECT flag)
and everything works great! My app is working too!! I can't understand
it but everything is fine, now.
I'm sorry for wasting your time :(
Thanks,
Ratao
