DESCRIPTION

       The  command `dptest' is a utility for facility test and performance test.  Check a database generated by the command or measure the execu-
       tion time of the command.  This command is used in the following format.  `name' specifies a database name.  `rnum' specifies the number of
       the  records.   `bnum'  specifies  the  number  of  the elements of the bucket array.  `pnum' specifies the number of patterns of the keys.
       `align' specifies the basic size of alignment.  `fbpsiz' specifies the size of the free block pool.

       dptest write [-s] name rnum bnum
	      Store records with keys of 8 bytes.  They change as `00000001', `00000002'...

       dptest read [-wb] name
	      Retrieve all records of the database above.

       dptest rcat [-c] name rnum bnum pnum align fbpsiz
	      Store records with partway duplicated keys using concatenate mode.

       dptest combo name
	      Perform combination test of various operations.

       dptest wicked [-c] name rnum
	      Perform updating operations selected at random.

       Options feature the following.

	      -s : make the file sparse.
	      -wb : use the function `dpgetwb' instead of the function `dpget'.
	      -c : perform comparison test with map of Cabin.

       This command returns 0 on success, another on failure.  The environment variable `QDBMDBGFD' specifies the file descriptor  to  output  the
       history of updating the variable `dpecode'.
