Hi all we have a ceph 0.67.4 cluster with 24 OSDs I have noticed that the two servers that have 9 OSD each, have around 10'000 threads running - a number that went up significantly 2 weeks ago. Looking at the threads: root@h2:/var/log/ceph# ps -efL | grep ceph-osd | awk '{ print $2 }' | uniq -c | sort -n 1 17583 856 3151 874 11946 1034 3173 1038 3072 1040 3175 1052 3068 1062 3149 1068 3060 1070 3190 root@h2:/var/log/ceph# ps axwu | grep ceph-osd root 3060 1.0 0.2 2224068 312456 ?

Is this normal and expected? One theory we have, is that this has to do with the number of placement groups - I had increased the number of PGs in one of the pools: root@h2:/var/log/ceph# ceph osd pool get images pg_num pg_num: 1000 root@h2:/var/log/ceph# ceph osd pool get volumes pg_num pg_num: 128 That could possibly have been on the day, the number of treads started to rise.
