Issue DM-2959: add metric to  application specific IO benchmarking tool
iosim is an application-specific benchmarking tool that is developed to be responsive to the request from LSST to select and investigate file systems ahead of actual benchmarks, and in advance of having workflow and other infrastructures needed to investigate file systems under realistic load. The week the software was -- Optimized to allow for faster test cycles. -- Threads were supported by squashing all thread IO into a single simulation process. -- Information from the original "model" program is propagated to the simulation program, allowing for comparison to the model. -- initial matplotlib plots allowing a degree of visualization of the performance of a simulated run was added The goals to deliver this capability in a few week when common systems at NCSA are available for testing.
