I think so, but I am not sure what kind of workload would benefit from
that tune. Do you have any in mind? Is the reason for this tuneable
value to have a more storage efficient caching tier?

Hi all,
I am working on OSDMonitor.cc:5325 and wanted to confirm the following
read_forward cache tier transition:
readforward -> forward || writeback || (any && num_objects_dirty == 0)
forward -> writeback || readforward || (any && num_objects_dirty == 0)
writeback -> readforward || forward
Is this the correct cache tier state transition?
That looks right to me.
By the way, I had a thought after we spoke that we probably want something
that is somewhere inbetween the current writeback behavior (promote on
first read) and the read_forward behavior (never promote on read). I
suspect a good all-around policy is something like promote on second read?
This should probably be rolled into the writeback mode as a tunable...
