Re: rbd_cache, limiting read on high iops around 40k

Hi Alexandre,

We have also seen something very similar on Hammer(0.94-1). We were doing some benchmarking for VMs hosted on hypervisor (QEMU-KVM, openstack-juno). Each Ubuntu-VM has a RBD as root disk, and 1 RBD as additional storage. For some strange reason it was not able to scale 4K- RR iops on each VM beyond 35-40k. We tried adding more RBDs to single VM, but no luck. However increasing number of VMs to 4 on a single hypervisor did scale to some extent. After this there was no much benefit we got from adding more VMs.  

Here is the trend we have seen, x-axis is number of hypervisor, each hypervisor has 4 VM, each VM has 1 RBD:-

   

 VDbench is used as benchmarking tool. We were not saturating network and CPUs at OSD nodes. We were not able to saturate CPUs at hypervisors, and that is where we were suspecting of some throttling effect. However  we haven't setted any such limits from nova or kvm end. We tried some CPU pinning and other KVM related tuning as well, but no luck.  

We tried the same experiment on a bare metal. It was 4K RR IOPs were scaling from 40K(1 RBD) to 180K(4 RBDs). But after that rather than scaling beyond that point the numbers were actually degrading. (Single pipe more congestion effect) 

We never suspected that rbd cache enable could be detrimental to performance. It would nice to route cause the problem if that is the case.

Hi,

I'm doing benchmark (ceph master branch), with randread 4k qdepth=32,
and rbd_cache=true seem to limit the iops around 40k


no cache
--------
1 client - rbd_cache=false - 1osd : 38300 iops
1 client - rbd_cache=false - 2osd : 69073 iops
1 client - rbd_cache=false - 3osd : 78292 iops


cache
-----
1 client - rbd_cache=true - 1osd : 38100 iops
1 client - rbd_cache=true - 2osd : 42457 iops
1 client - rbd_cache=true - 3osd : 45823 iops



Is it expected ?
