Interesting, I've switched to jemalloc about a month ago while running Hammer. after installing the library and using the /etc/ld.so.preload I am seeing that all ceph-osd processes are indeed using the library. I've upgraded to Jewel a few days ago and see the same picture: # time lsof |grep ceph-osd |grep jemalloc ceph-osd 1991 ceph mem REG 8,129 207488 525275 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libjemalloc.so.1 ceph-osd 1991 2094 ceph mem REG 8,129 207488 525275 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libjemalloc.so.1 ceph-osd 1991 6689 ceph mem REG 8,129 207488 525275 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libjemalloc.so.1 ceph-osd 2341 ceph mem REG 8,129 207488 525275 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libjemalloc.so.1 ceph-osd 2341 2414 ceph mem REG 8,129 207488 525275 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libjemalloc.so.1 ceph-osd 2341 3813 ceph mem REG 8,129 207488 525275 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libjemalloc.so.1 I've not done anything else apart from apt-get install <library-package> and added it to the ld.so.preload. I've also ran a few dd tests from about 20 vms before and after switching the library and see a significant performance increase for parallel writes. The increase was around 5x, which I couldn't believe at first, but repeated tests verified that. To me it looks like the libbrary is being used, but please advise if it is otherwise.
