There isn’t really a best option at the moment, although if your IO sizes aren’t that big, 4.0+ is probably the best option.

That kernel probably has the bug where tcp_nodelay is not enabled. That is fixed in Kernel 4.0+, however also in 4.0 blk-mq was introduced which brings two other limitations:-
1. Max queue depth of 128
2. IO’s sizes are restricted/split to 128kb

Hi all,
Is there any IO botleneck reported on kernel 3.18.3-031803-generic? since I'm having a lot of iowait and the cluster is really getting slow, and actually there's no much going on. I've read some time ago that there were some issues with kern 3.18, so I would like to know what's the 'best' kernel to go with, I'm using Ubuntu 14.04.1LTs and Ceph v0.82.
Thanks a lot,
Best regards,
German
