Hi, just compiled and tested it out, unfortunately there's no big change: ceph --version ceph version 0.58-375-ga4a6075 (a4a60758b7a10d51419c1961bb12f26b87672fd5) libvirt-config: <disk type='network' device='disk'> <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/> <source protocol='rbd' name='rbd/debian-template:rbd_cache=1'> <host name='10.32.1.177' port='6789'/> </source> <target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x07' function='0x0'/> </disk> within the VM: cat /dev/zero > /bigfile again trashes the virtual machine. reading seems quick(er) though (i can't go back to bobtail without some hassles on this machine (leveldb on monitor & such), so this is just a guess): dd if=/dev/vda of=/dev/null ... 82.0 MB/s One thing that I've noticed is that the virsh start command returns very quickly, this used to take longer on bobtail. > Thanks, > Josh you're welcome.
