ping_pong 1
ping_pong measures the ping-pong byte range lock latency
`ping_pong [options] <file> <num_locks>` `ping_pong` -r -w -m -c

## DESCRIPTION

This measures the ping-pong byte range lock latency. It is especially useful on a cluster of nodes sharing a common lock manager as it will give some indication of the lock managers performance under stress.

## OPTIONS

-r

  do reads

-w

  do writes

-m

  use mmap

-c

  validate the locks

## EXAMPLES

Testing lock coherence

          ping_pong test.dat N

Testing lock coherence with lock validation

          ping_pong -c test.dat N

Testing IO coherence

          ping_pong -rw test.dat N
