Add 2 new kind of event for running a memory or a io bounded load. "mem" name for a load is memory bounded, and "iorun" name for a load is io bounded. The default file to be written to create the load is /dev/null and the device/file could be specified with "io_device" key in "global" section.
E.g. "tasks" : { "thread0" : { "sleep" : 1000, "run" : 100, "mem" : 1000, "sleep" 10000, "iorun" : 1000 } }, "global" : { "io_device" : "/dev/ttyS0" }
Wouldn't be better if we can specify size of the accessed memory region, instead of iteration count? We can use phases to create arbitrary number of iterations for memory access.
