static char *test_file(int size)
{
- static char buf_templ[] = "/tmp/test-XXXXXX";
+#define TEMPL "/tmp/test-XXXXXX"

use /tmp/perf-test-XXXXXX or /tmp/perf-XXXXXX to we know where all these tmp files came from.

+ static char buf_templ[sizeof(TEMPL)];

why static? and ...

char *templ = buf_templ;
int fd, i;
unsigned char *buf;

+ strcpy(buf_templ, TEMPL);
+#undef TEMPL

why the need to change from char buf_templ[] to strcpy?
