However, we think it maybe better to implement inline data at a higher level, i.e, let Ceph aware. Since it could save the client the calculation of object location and communication with the OSDs. It hopefully will receive a good IO speedup for small files, with a slightly heavier load for MDS. > We have worked out a plan to do it, and the job is ongoing, and we are wondering the community 's response to this job and its fate for inclusion, comments are appreciated. I'd love to hear more details about this, since it presumably involves some protocol changes to let the MDS handle file data, as well as the client logic to update that correctly! :) -Greg -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe ceph-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
