Almost:

iozone -i 0 -i 1 -r 64k -s 5G -e -f /Data/testfile -U /Data

i.e. record size is 64K, and there is a umount/mount between the
runs. /Data is an ext3 filesystem with 4k block size, on a 20 G
partition.

For me it runs fine only the first time I call it. The next time UML
locks up.

Can I do something to find out more details?
