Hi Somnath,

Was this with HT enabled/disabled on both the cluster and the RBD nodes?

Hi Jiangang,
I managed to get some data for you but it's for a 3 node cluster. I will try to get data for single node as well.

Test config:
-------------

Cluster and rbd node config:
----------------------------------
"2x E5-2680 10C 2.8GHz 25M
8x 16GB RDIMM, dual rank x4 (128GB)
Mellanox MT27500 40 Gigabit Ethernet
LSI 9207 SAS HBA"

8 X 800 GB SSDs (Optimus Eco) per cluster node

3 cluster nodes + 3 rbd nodes

Total storage ~ 19 TB

We have total 24 OSDs running , each node has 8 OSDs/SSD

Configured 3 pools with 528 PGs/pool and 6 RBDs/pool . Each RBD image size is ~230G.

We have tried on 64K_RR_QD64 workload here.

HT_ENABLE
--------------

IOPS :  				112500
Throughput (MB/S):		7012
Avg Resp.Time (m.sec):                17
Max Resp.Time (m.sec):              3184

HT_DISABLE
--------------

IOPS :  				120864
Throughput (MB/S):		7530
Avg Resp.Time (m.sec):                11
Max Resp.Time (m.sec):              1056


So, ~7% iop increase but response time decrease is ~35% which is real good.

Thanks & Regards
Somnath

Hi Jiangang,
Give me a day or two, I will gather all the data and share with community.

Thanks & Regards

Can you guys share the w/ HT and w/o HT data? I want to take a look at that to understand why.

Thanks Andres for sharing this. I will try those out.
BTW, I am using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and couldn't find any sysfs entry like  'cpufreq'..

root@stormeap-4:~# ll /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu10/
cache/            crash_notes       driver/           microcode/        online            subsystem/        topology/

I am using Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2680 v2 @ 2.80GHz.

Hi,

as mentioned during today's meeting, here are the kernel boot parameters which I found to provide the basis for good performance results:

   processor.max_cstate=0
   intel_idle.max_cstate=0

I understand these to basically turn off any power saving modes of the CPU; the CPU's we are using are like
  Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2640 v2 @ 2.00GHz
  Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 0 @ 2.30GHz

At the BIOS level, we
  - turn off Hyperthraeding
  - turn off Turbo mode (in order ot not leave the specifications)
  - turn on frequency floor override

We also assert that
  /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor
  is set to "performance"

Using above we see a constant frequency at the maximum level allowed by the CPU (except Turbo mode).


Best Regards

Andreas Bluemle
