Are you looking for a test (suite) that tests fs metadata moreso
than fs IO? People have asked for that a few times, but I don't
know of one that is made for that.

Here are some possibilities:

iozone - all sorts of read/write testing, little metadata
http://www.iozone.org
postmark - email-like tester, mostly small files, with file
create/delete
[google for it]
fsx - tester that has stressed (and busted) extN and nfs several
times [I would start here.]
from: http://www.codemonkey.org.uk/cruft/
or: http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/
(these might be different versions of the same prog.)
