Hi there,

do snapshots have an impact on write performance? I assume on each write
all snapshots have to get updated (cow) so the more snapshots exist the
worse write performance will get?

I'll be honest, I haven't tested it so I'm not sure how much impact there actually is. If you are really interested and wouldn't mind doing some testing, I would love to see the results!


Is there any way to see how much disk space a snapshot occupies? I
assume because of cow snapshots start with 0 real disk usage and grow
over time as the underlying object changes?

I'm not an expert here, but does rbd ls -l help?
