Mar 1, 2025March 2025: Delivered three key features for NVIDIA/multi-storage-client that improve configurability, storage efficiency, and cache reliability. Implemented JSON-based benchmark configuration to load runs from an external file with sensible defaults if missing; added S3 Express One Zone storage class detection and applied appropriate storage class on uploads, with ObjectMetadata extended to track storage class; introduced configurable eviction policies for the cache (LRU, FIFO, Random) via a policy factory and accompanying tests. These changes enhance test reproducibility, optimize cloud storage costs, and increase cache performance and reliability.
