Activity Inputs

Each activity has an input that controls which cycles it will run. By default, the input is a simple interval that dispatches cycle ranges to activity threads, starting at some cycle number and ending at another. Example of this type of input include:

# cycle 0 through cycle 4, 5 cycles total
cycles=0..5

# cycle 0 through cycle 9999999
# When the interval start is left off, "0.." is assumed.
cycles=10M

# cycle 1000000000 through cycle 4999999999
cycles=1000G..5000G

However, there are other ways to feed an activity. All inputs are modular within the nosqlbench runtime. To see what inputs are available, you can simpy run:

PROG --list-input-types

Any input listed this way should have its own documentation.
