With SSDs, In the past I've seen increasing the osd op thread count can 
help random reads.

It's also probably worth trying disabling all in-memory logging. 
Unfortunately I don't think we have a global flag to do this, so you 
have to do it on a per-log basis which is annoying.

Related to the sync interval, I was also playing with vm.dirty_expire_centisecs and vm.dirty_writeback_centisecs to disable the background page flushing (disables FileStore flushing). That way, the only disk activity becomes the journal writes. You can confirm that with iostat.
