journal on ramdisk for testing

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm doing some testing and wanted to see the effect of increasing journal speed, and the fastest way to do this seemed to be to put it on a ramdisk where latency should drop to near zero and I can see what other inefficiencies exist.

I created a tmpfs of sufficient size, copied journal on to that, and started the OSD. It core dumped pretty quickly which I assume is related to direct io not being supported. I turned off journal dio and the osd started okay but never recovered.

How should I do this? Is there another type of ramdisk I should use or other journal options I should specify?

(and yes I understand that losing ramdisk will lose the osd - I'm just doing testing)

Thanks

James
