So with other benchmark tools like vdbench - we can bench the entire block device without having to create a file system but it seems that with Phoronix you have to create a file system so that it can "cache" the fio binary as well as the run test in.
Is there a way to run "fio" on the raw volume? Using the user-config.xml via the EnvironmentDirectory directory to point to the mount point requires that the block device has a file system created on it
