The file benchmark_software.tar.gz contains software for running the Labflow-1 benchmark on top of the Texas storage manager. This file should be ftp'ed in binary mode, then uncompressed (using gunzip), and finally untarred (using tar). This will create a subdirectory in your area called "benchamrk_software". The README file in this subdirectory outlines how to run the benchmark. You will need about 162 Mega Bytes to store the untarred file. If you have any comments or questions, please send email to Anthony Bonner at bonner@db.toronto.edu.
