seivot

benchmark program for backup software

seivot generates synthetic test data and backs it up using the desired backup tool. It then modifies the test data, and makes further backups. It also does restores, verifications, and forgets backup generations. It measures the runtime and memory usage of each run of the backup program. seivot currently works only for obnam, but welcomes patches for other backup programs.
