This suggests to me that even a simple LRU write buffer cache in bluefs to catch recently compacted SSTs will be enough to prime the rocksdb kv cache. Either that or we need to do the same in rocksdb itself, but they didn't seem very interested in doing that in the general case. Our situation is a bit atypical in that we'd prefer to eliminate the dependence on the OS page cache so that we can work with SPDK. sage -- 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
