I can't find it in the documentation. Moreover, the example at http://ceph.com/docs/master/rados/configuration/pool-pg-config-ref/ comes out with 333, which is certainly not a power of two. If using a power of two for the number of PGs provides a benefit, I would be happy to know more about it. Regards Christian -- Dipl.-Inf.
