Filebench is a file system and storage benchmark that can generate a large
variety of workloads. Unlike typical benchmarks it is extremely flexible and
allows to specify application's I/O behavior using its extensive Workload Model
Language (WML). Users can either describe desired workloads from scratch or use
(with or without modifications) workload personalities shipped with Filebench
(e.g., mail-, web-, file-, and database-server workloads). Filebench is equally
good for micro- and macro-benchmarking, quick to setup, and relatively easy to
use.
Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

Resurrect benchmarks/filebench
Upstream moved to GitHub and is still accepting patches (interestingly, the
most recent commits fix building Filebench on FreeBSD).
benchmarks/filebench: update to 1.4.9.1
- Drop ONLY_FOR_ARCHS as the Linux-specific code is gone
- Chase new home on SourceForge
- LICENSE_FILE is now shipped within distfile

Add new port benchmarks/filebench
Filebench is quick to set up and use unlike many of the commercial
benchmarks which it can emulate. It is also a handy tool for
micro-benchmarking storage subsystems and studying the relationships of
complex applications such as relational databases with their storage
without having to incur the costs of setting up those applications,
loading data and so forth.
Filebench uses loadable workload personalities in a common framework to
allow easy emulation of complex applications upon file systems. The
workload personalities use a Workload Definition Language to define the
workload's model.
