I'm guessing the is fallout from the kernel's behavior. When you set up an IO queue you specify how many aios you want to allow (that's where we use the max_queue_depth value), but the kernel rounds the buffer up to a page boundary, so in reality it will use more. That can make you hit the host maximum sooner. sage _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
