Hi Guys,
I am trying latest ceph-9.1.0 with rocksdb 4.1 and ceph-9.0.3 with rocksdb 3.11 as OSD backend. I use rbd to test performance and following is my cluster info.
[ceph@xxx ~]$ ceph -s
cluster b74f3944-d77f-4401-a531-fa5282995808
health HEALTH_OK
monmap e1: 1 mons at {xxx=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:6789/0}
election epoch 1, quorum 0 xxx
osdmap e338: 44 osds: 44 up, 44 in
flags sortbitwise
pgmap v1476: 2048 pgs, 1 pools, 158 MB data, 59 objects
1940 MB used, 81930 GB / 81932 GB avail
2048 active+clean
All the disks are spinning ones with write cache turning on. Rocksdb's WAL and sst files are on the same disk as every OSD.
Using fio to generate following write load:
fio -direct=1 -rw=randwrite -ioengine=sync -size=10M -bs=4K -group_reporting -directory /mnt/rbd_test/ -name xxx.1 -numjobs=1
Test result:
WAL enabled + sync: false + disk write cache: on will get ~700 IOPS.
WAL enabled + sync: true (default) + disk write cache: on|off will get only ~25 IOPS.
I tuned some other rocksdb options, but with no lock. I tracked down the rocksdb code and found each writer's Sync operation would take ~30ms to finish. And as shown above, it is strange that performance has no much difference no matters disk write cache is on or off.
Do your guys encounter the similar issue? Or do I miss something to cause rocksdb's poor write performance?
Thanks.
