Well, if you are cpu limited, I don't think you can use all 8*35000iops by node. So, maybe a benchmark can tell us if the difference is really big. Using tmpfs and ups can be ok, but if you have a kernel panic or hardware problem, you'll lost your journal. ----- Mail original ----- De: "Stefan Priebe - Profihost AG" <s.priebe@xxxxxxxxxxxx> À: "Mark Nelson" <mark.nelson@xxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: "Alexandre DERUMIER" <aderumier@xxxxxxxxx>, "ceph-devel" <ceph-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, "Mark Kampe" <mark.kampe@xxxxxxxxxxx>, "Sébastien Han" <han.sebastien@xxxxxxxxx> Envoyé: Jeudi 22 Novembre 2012 16:01:56 Objet: Re: RBD fio Performance concerns Am 22.11.2012 15:46, schrieb Mark Nelson: > I haven't played a whole lot with SSD only OSDs yet (other than noting > last summer that iop performance wasn't as high as I wanted it).

I mean data goes to Disk journal - same disk then has to copy the Data from part A to part B. Why is this an advantage?
