Generates randomly named files with bitwise random content using Python.
Utility to rapidly create files containing random data. Writes files using chunks to ensure memory efficiency. To increase speed, use a larger value of --chunk_size_bytes
than the default. One chunk is written at a time, so one chunk must fit into available memory on your machine or the program will fail.
Potential use cases include: - Internet/network transfer speed testing - Disk I/O speed testing
Examples:
- 1000 files , 1 MiB each: python -m create -n=1000 -f=1024
- 1 file, 10 GiB: python -m create -f=1024
