No, bonnie doesn't measure this performance. For the "recordings menu"
the first access to the file tree after all the cached information has
been flushed from the buffers by a recording or playback is important.
bonnie tests repeated access to the same files and directories and this
is fast with VDR. Just leave the menu and enter it again immedeately, it
reappears again very fast.
