Create Dummy Data in Amazon EFS

Disk read/write speed in Amazon EFS depends on how much data you have on the file system.

Amazon EFS have something called BurstCreditBalance, that shows much much data balance you have available. Initially all file system have some 2 TB Burst credit, this is is for you to copy data. If you don’t copy dummy data or real data, your file system performance will degrade after your Burst credit used up.
