Platform: Ubuntu 11.10 x86_64 server, i3 3.4GHz processor, 8GB RAM.
This works fine:
# time bonnie++ -d /data/sdb -s 16384k -n 98:800k:500k:1000 -u root
It uses transfers of 8192 bytes (as shown by strace). I wanted to test using a larger chunk size:
# time bonnie++ -d /data/sdb -s 16384k:32k -n 98:800k:500k:1000:32k -u root
However with these arguments bonnie++ crashes. It seems pretty repeatable here. Equally, it's unlikely to be a hardware fault because running bonnie++ without the 32k chunk size never crashes.
# time bonnie++ -d /data/sdb -s 16384k:32k -n 98:800k:500k:1000:32k -u root
Using uid:0, gid:0.

The bug appears to be here (bonnie++.cpp)
void set_io_
{ delete m_buf; pa_new(size, m_buf, m_buf_pa); m_io_chunk_size = size; }
void set_file_
{ delete m_buf; m_buf = new char[__max(size, m_io_chunk_size)]; m_file_chunk_size = size; }
set_file_
You can work around it by providing the '-n' option before the '-s' option on the command line, and ensuring you use the same chunksize for both -n and -s. e.g.
# time bonnie++ -d /data/sdc -n 98:800k:
Or you can use -s0 when using -n with a non-default chunk size.
