I`d vote for warming up necessary files, most likely collections, just before restart. If there are no enough room to hold all of them at once, we can probably combine both methods to achieve lower impact value on restart, although adding a simple delay sounds much more straight than putting file cache to ram. -- 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
