storage tutorial improvements

rkdarst opened this issue · 1 comments

The storage tutorial could use some better exercises, less technical and abstract. We were thinking that it could be more about lightweight testing of real code to understand how much i/o it does.

  • benchmark a program, e.g. import python -e file-c 'import keras'
  • strace is simplest
  • understand i/o of a file, strace -e file
  • ... ?

Some of this could be combined with the profiling page.

I think some of this has been done but probably can still be improved
