I simple use own pretty simple test. btw, you may disable preallocation
to increase allocation rate


bash-script:
============================================================
#!/bin/sh

# args:
# 1 - how many processes to create
# 2 - how many blocks in file to be written
# 3 - how many times to repeat (write+truncate)
# for example: cd.sh 2 32 100000

let i=0
while let "i < $1"; do
        if [ ! -d /mnt/$i ]; then
                mkdir /mnt/$i
        fi
        rm -rf /mnt/$i/*
        let "i=i+1"

let i=0

C programm, which does loop over writes and truncate:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>


main (int argc, char ** argv)
{
        int i, j, num, siz, err, k;
        int fd[1024];

        num = atoi(argv[2]);
        siz = atoi(argv[1]);
        
        for (i = 3; i < argc; i++) {
                fd[i] = creat(argv[i], 0666);
                if (fd[i] < 0) {
                        perror("can't create");
                        exit(1);
                }
        }

        for (j = 0; j < num; j++) {
                for (i = 3; i < argc; i++) {
