Hi all,
I jumped into the IRC channel yesterday and they said to email
ceph-devel. I have been having some read performance issues. With Reads
being slower than writes by a factor of ~5-8.
First info:
Server
SLES 11 SP2
Ceph 0.56.4.
12 OSD's that are Hardware Raid 5 each of the twelve is made from 5
NL-SAS disks for a total of 60 disks (Each lun can do around 320MB/s
stream write and the same if not better read) Connected via 2xQDR IB
OSD's/MDS and such all on same box (for testing)
Box is a Quad AMD Opteron 6234
Ram is 256Gb
10GB Journals
osd_op_theads: 8
osd_disk_threads:2
Filestore_op_threads:4
OSD's are all XFS
All nodes are connected via QDR IB using IP_O_IB. We get 1.7GB/s on TCP
performance tests between the nodes.
Clients: One is FC17 the other us Ubuntu 12.10 they only have around
32GB-70GB ram.
We ran into an odd issue were the OSD's would all start in the same NUMA
node and pretty much on the same processor core. We fixed that up with
some cpuset magic.
Performance testing we have done: (Note oflag=direct was yielding
results within 5% of cached results)

Both clients each doing a 140GB write (2x dogbreath's RAM) at the same
time to two different rbds in the same pool.

Onto reads...
Also we found that doing iflag=direct increased read performance.

So what info do you want/where do I start hunting for my wumpus?
