Hello list,
i found several people who use big metadata -n 64k -l 64k for ceph. But i
haven't found any ceph doc or info why to use this?
What's the reason to use big metadata feature with ceph?
One of the big problems users have had with Ceph-on-btrfs is that
Ceph's usage patterns cause btrfs to dramatically fragment its
metadata. Big metadata blocks reduce this fragmentation to a level
where some users find it faster than xfs (which it previously wasn't).
Thanks!
Stefan
