Hi, Loic, I also suspect the bottleneck is not the CPU. I stored the journal and the data on the same HDD, so the write performance is very poor. Is it the possible limiting factor in my system? Now I am trying to save the journal to SSD insted of the HDD. I will report the results later if I got better results. By the way, is there any commands or methods to know whether the CPU is really accelerated? Or I can only know that from the results of benchmark? I am worry about that the ISA erasure profile is not read by the Ceph...

I would however expect to see some difference because the ISA plugin goes faster than the Jerasure plugin for writes. Could it be that in the test you run the CPU is not the limiting factor ? > > Cheers > > >> Thanks, :) >> Derek >> >> 2015-08-06 20:31 GMT+08:00 Loic Dachary <loic@xxxxxxxxxxx>: >>> Hi, >>> >>> Could you please publish the benchmark results somewhere ?
