There could well be an additional factor connected with xfs and lots
of files on these Intel 520s - I have just had a conversation with a
workmate who switched xfs to ext4 due to this. I will see if ext4 or
btrfs (scary) do any better on these drives...
Actually that seems to be a different issue (mass deletion of many small
files)...I am not seeing significant differences using ext4 or btrfs. So
back to using xfs again :-)
One thing that *does* seems to have made a difference is upgrading from
0.48 to 0.50 (also Ubuntu kernel patched from 3.2.0-27 to 3.2.0-29):
$ rados bench -b 4096 -t 256 -p rbd 100 write

(Recall Bandwidth was about 0.3 MB/sec previously). Typical iostat looks
much happier:

I'll get collectl info using this version unless Mark especially wants
the data for 0.48 (but it *looks* like some nice improvements are in
there already with the later version).
Cheers
Mark
