I created a new blueprint that discusses rgw bucket scalability: http://wiki.ceph.com/01Planning/02Blueprints/Emperor/rgw:_bucket_index_scalability As was brought up on the mailing list recently, bucket index may serve as a contention point. There are a few suggestions in how to solve / mitigate the issue, and we'd like to discuss these at CDS. If you want to participate in the discussion, please add yourself to the blueprint as an interested party.
