Dear all,
on the BoF (slide information to follow), we had been discussing the
importance of having a good name for the IO-500 benchmark, e.g.,
compare this to Linpack.
We will package all used benchmarks into a benchmark with a given name.
Likewise the IO-500 needs a logo similar to Top500, Graph500, ...,
We discussed that the community should be the place to collect ideas
and vote for these names and logos.
Here is a google spreadsheet:

Feel free to add names/logos.
You may already vote (just add 1), that we have a first impression
about good and bad ideas.
Since we are basing the IO-500 on IOR and mdtest, I think it makes sense
to keep the name fairly close to that. I've added several variants that
tie back to those names so that it is more clear we are not developing
our own benchmark.
Cheers, Andreas
