A simple ls -l takes "ages" on XFS while ext4 lists a directory immediately. According to our findings regarding XFS this seems to be "normal" behavior. pool name category KB objects data - 3240 2265521646 document_root - 577364 10150 images - 96197462245 2256616709 metadata - 1150105 35903724 queue - 542967346 173865 raw - 36875247450 13095410 total of 4736 pgs, 6 pools, 124 TB data, 4359 Mobjects What would you like to see? tree? du per Directory? As you can see we have one data-object in pool "data" per file saved somewhere else. I'm not sure what's this related to, but maybe this is a must by cephfs. -- Kind regards Michael Metz-Martini _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
