Anything special in your crush map? > What specific values are you thinking about? But no, nothing special, no tuning at all with that cluster. The gain is simply from having more spindles to distribute the load (remember rados bench runs 16 threads by default and I use 64) amongst. > Did it improve your write speed and latency? > I was referring to write speed (bandwidth), for sequential reads a single HDD can saturate a 1GbE link, let alone 4. As for latency, somewhat. But this cluster isn't pure testing, no SSDs, so it is slow no matter what.
