     LMOUNT(1)                                               LMOUNT(1)

     NAME
          lmount - octopus link testing mount tool

     SYNOPSIS
          o/lmount [ -L ms ] ...

     DESCRIPTION
          This program is similar to mount(1) and accepts all its
          options, but includes instrumentation to test services over
          poor latency links. The flag -L delayes each request sent to
          the server for ms milliseconds. Requests are delayed concur-
          rently so that throughput is not affected.

          Creating a file with name !!LAT=N is a more convenient way
          of adjusting the delay to N milliseconds. Once the service
          is mounted, and its file tree populated, a
          touch /mnt/!!LAT=n
          would put delays in effect.
