Re: failing to respond to cache pressure

Both client and server are Jewel 10.2.0

"All kinds of issues"  include that EVERY node ended up with the cache pressure message, even if they had done no access at all.
I ended up with some 200 degraded pgs.  Quite a few with other of the 'standard' errors of suck waiting and such. I ended up disconnecting all mounted clients and waiting about 45 minutes for it to clear. I couldn't effectively do any writes until I let it clear.

I am watching my write speeds and while I can get it to peak at a couple hundred MB/s, it is usually below 10 and often below 1.
That isn't the kind of performance I would expect from a parallel file system, hence my questioning if it should be used in my environment.

What client, what version?

All kinds of issues...?  Need more specific bug reports than that to fix things.
