Probably in an extended gfio format, + so we can include options/settings outside of a fio job file. + +- End view improvements: + + - Cleanup the layout + - Add ability to save the results + - Add ability to load end-results as well + - Add ability to request graphs of whatever graphing options + the fio job included. + - Add ability to graph completion latencies, percentiles, etc. + +- Add ability to edit job options: + + - We need an options view after sending a job, that allows us to + visually see what was parsed, make changes, resubmit. + + - Job options are already converted across the network and + are available in gfio_client->o for view/edit. We'll need + a FIO_NET_CMD_UPDATE_OPTIONS command to send them back, + and backend support for updating an existing set of options. + +- Add support for printing end results, graphs, etc. + +- Improve the auto-start backend functionality, it's quite buggy. + +- Ensure that it works on OSX and Windows. We'll need a bit of porting + work there. + +- Persistent store of prefences set. This will need a per-OS bit as well, + using gfonf on Linux, registry on Windows, ?? on OSX. + +- Add 'Recent Files' to File menu. + +- Ensure that local errors go to our log, instead of being displayed on + the console. + +- Ensure that the whole connect/send/start button logic is sane. Right + now it works when you perform the right sequence, but if you connect + and disconnect, things can get confused. We'll need to improve how + we store and send job files. Right now they are in ge->job_files[] + and are always emptied on send. Keep them around? + +- Commit rate display is not enabled. + +- Group status reporting is not enabled. + +- Split gfio.c a bit. Add gfio/ sub directory, and split it into + files based on functionality. It's already ~3000 lines long. + +- Attempt to ensure that we work with gtk 2.10 and newer. Right + now the required version is ~2.18 (not quite known). -- 2.25.1
