aren't relevant to memory usage.  The _per_shard is about how many bytes 
are stored in each rocksdb key, and the num_shards is about how many 
threads we use.

This is the one that matters:

It governs how much memory bluestore limits itself to.  He bad news is 
that bluestore counts what it allocates, not how much memory the allocator 
uses, so there is some overhead.  From what I've anecdotally seen it's 
something like 1.5x, which kind of sucks; there is more to be done here.

On top of that is usage by the OSD outside of bluestore, 
which is somewhere in the 500m to 1.5g range.

We're very interested in hearing what observed RSS users see relative to 
the configured bluestore size and pg count, along with a dump of the 
mempool metadata (ceph daemon osd.NNN dump_mempools).

Very roughly, something like: osd_overhead + bluestore_cache_size * 1.5 ?

Yes, you can/should change this to whatever you like (big or small).

Nope, just a shard size...

This depends, unfortunately, on what the write pattern is for the objects.  
If they're written by RGW in big chunks, the overhead will be smaller.  
If it comes out of a 4k random write pattern it will be bigger.  Again, 
very interestd in hearing user reports of what is observed in real world 
situations.  I would trust that more than a calculation from first 
principles like the above.

In Mark's testing he found that we got more performance benefit when 
small caches were devoted to rocksdb and large caches were devoted mostly 
to the bluestore metadata cache (parsed onodes vs caching the encoded 
on-disk content).  You can always adjust the 512m value upwards (and that 
may make sense for large cache sizes).  Again, very interested in hearing 
whther that works better or worse for your workload!

Thanks-
