Hello.
Some strange things happen with my ceph installation after I was moved journal to SSD disk.
OS: Ubuntu 15.04 with ceph version 0.94.2-0ubuntu0.15.04.1
server: dell r510 with PERC H700 Integrated 512MB RAID cache
my cluster have:
1 monitor node
2 OSD nodes with 6 OSD daemons at each server (3Tb HDD SATA 7200 rpm disks XFS system).
network: 1Gbit to hypervisor and 1 Gbit among all ceph nodes
ceph.conf:
[global]
public network = 10.12.0.0/16
cluster network = 192.168.133.0/24
auth cluster required = cephx
auth service required = cephx

Without SSD as a journal i have a ~112MB/sec throughput
After I was added SSD 64Gb ADATA for a journal disk and create 6 raw partitions. And I get a very slow bandwidth with rados bench:
Total time run: 302.350730
Total writes made: 1146
Write size: 4194304
Bandwidth (MB/sec): 15.161
Stddev Bandwidth: 11.5658
Max bandwidth (MB/sec): 52
Min bandwidth (MB/sec): 0
Average Latency: 4.21521
Stddev Latency: 1.25742
Max latency: 8.32535
Min latency: 0.277449
iostat show a few write io (no more than 200):

test with fio (qd=32,128,256, bs=4k) show very good performance of SSD disk (10-30k write io).
Can anybody help me? Can someone faced with similar problem?
