We are using SCST over RBD and not seeing much of a degradation...Need to make sure you tune SCST properly and use multiple session..

Thanks & Regards
Somnath

...and introduces a bottleneck. iSCSI initiators are "dumb" in comparison to native ceph/rbd clients. Whereas native clients will talk to all the relevant OSDs directly, iSCSI initiators will just talk to the target (unless there is some awesome magic in the RBD/tgt integration that I'm unaware of). So the targets and their connectivity are a bottleneck.
