Hello Guix!  This small series adds sysbench, which is supposed to be a
simpler alternative to fio.  You can try it like so:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ mkdir /tmp/sysbench-test && cd /tmp/sysbench-test
$ sysbench fileio prepare
[...]
$ sysbench fileio --file-test-mode=rndrw run
sysbench 1.0.20 (using system LuaJIT 2.1.0-beta3)

Running the test with following options:
Number of threads: 1
Initializing random number generator from current time

Extra file open flags: (none)
128 files, 16MiB each
2GiB total file size
Block size 16KiB
Number of IO requests: 0
Read/Write ratio for combined random IO test: 1.50
Periodic FSYNC enabled, calling fsync() each 100 requests.
Calling fsync() at the end of test, Enabled.
Using synchronous I/O mode
Doing random r/w test
Initializing worker threads...

Threads started!

         sum:                                10040.07

Threads fairness:
    events (avg/stddev):           454.0000/0.00
    execution time (avg/stddev):   10.0401/0.00
