I m a newuser of IOzone, when Iî the IOzone with the direct: /iozone -i 0 - i 1 -t 2 - T, 生成以下结果(部分):

Command line used: ./iozone -i 0 -i 1 -t 2 -T
Output is in Kbytes/sec
Time Resolution = 0.000001 seconds.

Processor cache line size set to 32 bytes.
File stride size set to 17 * record size.
Throughput test with 2 threads
Each thread writes a 512 Kbyte file in 4 Kbyte records

iozone test complete.

I get confused about meaning of "throughput" and "Min xfer", is there someone can help me? By the way, why the throughput seen from children and parent is different? Thanks!
