[Single OSD performance on SSD] Can't go over 3, 2K IOPS

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

 



Hi Sebastian,
If you are trying with the latest Ceph master, there are some changes we made that will be increasing your read performance from SSD a factor of ~5X if the ios are hitting the disks. Otherwise, the serving from memory the improvement is even more. The single OSD will be cpu bound with increasing number of clients eventually both reading from disk and memory scenario. Some new config option are introduced and here are those.

        osd_op_num_threads_per_shard
        osd_op_num_shards
        throttler_perf_counter
        osd_enable_op_tracker
        filestore_fd_cache_size
        filestore_fd_cache_shards

The work pool for the io path is now sharded and the above options are for controlling this. Osd_op_threads are no longer in the io path. Also, the filestore FDcache is sharded now.
In my setup(64GB RAM, 40 core CPU with HT enabled)  the following config file on a single OSD is giving optimum result for 4k RR read.

[global]

        filestore_xattr_use_omap = true

        debug_lockdep = 0/0
        debug_context = 0/0
        debug_crush = 0/0
        debug_buffer = 0/0
        debug_timer = 0/0
        debug_filer = 0/0
        debug_objecter = 0/0

        debug_journaler = 0/0
        debug_objectcatcher = 0/0
        debug_client = 0/0

        debug_ms = 0/0
        debug_monc = 0/0
        debug_tp = 0/0
        debug_auth = 0/0
        debug_finisher = 0/0
        debug_heartbeatmap = 0/0
        debug_perfcounter = 0/0
        debug_asok = 0/0
        debug_throttle = 0/0
        debug_mon = 0/0
        debug_paxos = 0/0
        debug_rgw = 0/0
        osd_op_threads = 5
        osd_op_num_threads_per_shard = 1
        osd_op_num_shards = 25
        #osd_op_num_sharded_pool_threads = 25
        filestore_op_threads = 4

        ms_nocrc = true
        filestore_fd_cache_size = 64
        filestore_fd_cache_shards = 32
        cephx sign messages = false
        cephx require signatures = false

        ms_dispatch_throttle_bytes = 0
        throttler_perf_counter = false


[osd]
        osd_client_message_size_cap = 0
        osd_client_message_cap = 0
        osd_enable_op_tracker = false


What I saw optracker is one of the major bottleneck and we are in process of optimizing that. For now, optracker enabled/disabled code introduced. Also, there are several bottlenecks in the filestore level are removed.
Unfortunately, we are yet to optimize the write path. All of these should help the write path as well, but, write path improvement will not be visible till all the lock serialization are removed.

Thanks & Regards

Subject: [Single OSD performance on SSD] Can't go over 3, 2K IOPS

Hey all,

It has been a while since the last thread performance related on the ML :p I've been running some experiment to see how much I can get from an SSD on a Ceph cluster.
To achieve that I did something pretty simple:

* Debian wheezy 7.6
* kernel from debian 3.14-0.bpo.2-amd64
* 1 cluster, 3 mons (i'd like to keep this realistic since in a real deployment i'll use 3)
* 1 OSD backed by an SSD (journal and osd data on the same device)
* 1 replica count of 1
* partitions are perfectly aligned
* io scheduler is set to noon but deadline was showing the same results
* no updatedb running

About the box:

* 32GB of RAM
* 12 cores with HT @ 2,4 GHz
* WB cache is enabled on the controller
* 10Gbps network (doesn't help here)

The SSD is a 200G Intel DC S3700 and is capable of delivering around 29K iops with random 4k writes (my fio results) As a benchmark tool I used fio with the rbd engine (thanks deutsche telekom guys!).

O_DIECT and D_SYNC don't seem to be a problem for the SSD:

# dd if=/dev/urandom of=rand.file bs=4k count=65536
65536+0 records in
65536+0 records out
268435456 bytes (268 MB) copied, 29.5477 s, 9.1 MB/s

# du -sh rand.file
256M    rand.file

# dd if=rand.file of=/dev/sdo bs=4k count=65536 oflag=dsync,direct
65536+0 records in
65536+0 records out
268435456 bytes (268 MB) copied, 2.73628 s, 98.1 MB/s

Disabling all debugging made me win 200/300 more IOPS.

I tried to tweak several parameters like:

filestore_wbthrottle_xfs_ios_start_flusher = 10000 filestore_wbthrottle_xfs_ios_hard_limit = 10000 filestore_wbthrottle_btrfs_ios_start_flusher = 10000 filestore_wbthrottle_btrfs_ios_hard_limit = 10000 filestore queue max ops = 2000

But didn't any improvement.

Then I tried other things:

* Increasing the io_depth up to 256 or 512 gave me between 50 to 100 more IOPS but it's not a realistic workload anymore and not that significant.
* adding another SSD for the journal, still getting 3,2K IOPS
* I tried with rbd bench and I also got 3K IOPS
* I ran the test on a client machine and then locally on the server, still getting 3,2K IOPS
* put the journal in memory, still getting 3,2K IOPS
* with 2 clients running the test in parallel I got a total of 3,6K IOPS but I don't seem to be able to go over
* I tried is to add another OSD to that SSD, so I had 2 OSD and 2 journals on 1 SSD, got 4,5K IOPS YAY!

Given the results of the last time it seems that something is limiting the number of IOPS per OSD process.

Running the test on a client or locally didn't show any difference.
So it looks to me that there is some contention within Ceph that might cause this.

I also ran perf and looked at the output, everything looks decent, but someone might want to have a look at it :).

We have been able to reproduce this on 3 distinct platforms with some deviations (because of the hardware) but the behaviour is the same.
Any thoughts will be highly appreciated, only getting 3,2k out of an 29K IOPS SSD is a bit frustrating :).

Cheers.
