Well, I see mons dropping out when deleting large amount of snapshots, and it leats a _lot_ of CPU to delete them, I also had to manually schedule “compact” for the leveldb on mons as it stopped compacting itself. But that doesn’t impact IO as far as I know (or does the mon speed actually impact IO?). I can see lots of layers on the snapshotted volumes as well as extremely large overhead with snapshots (2.5TB volume that actually occupies 7TB(*3) of space until even the HEAD is deleted), but that’s a different story I guess… Jan > On 16 Jun 2015, at 12:32, Gregory Farnum <greg@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > On Tue, Jun 16, 2015 at 3:30 AM, Jan Schermer <jan@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> Thanks for the answer. >> So it doesn’t hurt performance if it grows to ridiculous size - e.g. no lookup table overhead, stat()ing additional files etc.? > > Nope, definitely nothing like that.
