Ceph RBD bench has a strange behaviour when RBD client caching is active

Hi,

We've run into a weird issue on our current test setup. We're currently
testing a small low-cost Ceph setup, with sata drives, 1gbps ethernet
and an Intel SSD for journaling per host. We've linked this to an
openstack setup. Ceph is the latest Hammer release.

We notice that when we do rbd benchmarks using the rbd bench tool, the
benchmark never really complete. It starts, run for 3 seconds and then
stop, despite the rbd drive being 10 GB and the tool using 4k block
size. If I set the rbd caching to false, the benchmark runs normally and
complete after a few minutes.

How can the rbd_cache affect the benchmark tool in this manner and does
it has direct impacts on the openstack cluster running of this ceph setup?
