In practice, hot storage feels even fifty-percent commit on a xfs with default mount parameters, so you may consider as a rule of thumb to reach commit not higher than 60 percents. For mixed or cold storage numbers will vary, as average clat and write throughput will matter less. > _______________________________________________ > ceph-users mailing list > ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
