+ <screen>ost 10 is the total number of OSTs under test.
+sz 167772160K is the total amount of data read or written (in bytes).
+rsz 1024K is the record size (size of each echo_client I/O, in bytes).
+obj 10 is the total number of objects over all OSTs
+thr 10 is the total number of threads over all OSTs and objects
+write is the test name. If more tests have been specified they
+ all appear on the same line.
+10982.73 is the aggregate bandwidth over all OSTs measured by
+ dividing the total number of MB by the elapsed time.
+[601.97,2912.91] are the minimum and maximum instantaneous bandwidths seen on
+ any individual OST.
+Note that although the numbers of threads and objects are specifed per-OST
+in the customization section of the script, results are reported aggregated
+over all OSTs.</screen>
