Hey Samuel, Unfortunately, disabling "wbthrottle" made almost no difference on my production-cluster. OSD-load was still much higher on Dumpling. I've mentioned this several times already, but when profiling with `perf top' on my production-cluster, any time I'm running a Dumpling-OSD, several "libleveldb"-related entries come up near the top, that don't show up when running the Cuttlefish-OSD at all. Let's concentrate on that for a moment, as it's a clearly visible difference on my production-cluster, which shows the actual problem.

Another interesting fact, is that I only see it use so much CPU on my production-cluster, which is serving around 80 KVMs over RBD, over 2x10Gbit/s ethernet per node and so has a much higher and more diverse load than what I can generate on my test-cluster. Any ideas about this particular one? Did anything change between Cuttlefish and Dumpling that would account for higher CPU-usage by "libleveldb", particularly under this client-load? Anything I can try to bring it down? Thanks!
