Faster cores is better for Ceph, IMNSHO.
Though with main storage on HDDs, this will do.

Overkill for Ceph but I see something else below...

Exact model please.

One hopes that's a non SMR one.
Model please.

Ah, Proxmox. 
I'm personally not averse to converged, high density, multi-role clusters
myself, but you:
a) need to know what you're doing and
b) will find a lot of people here who don't approve of it.

I've avoided DOMs so far (non-hotswapable SPOF), even though the SM ones
look good on paper with regards to endurance and IOPS. 
The later being rather important for your monitors.

Configuration would be nice for those, LACP?

rados bench is limited tool and measuring bandwidth is in nearly all
the use cases pointless. 
Latency is where it is at and testing from inside a VM is more relevant
than synthetic tests of the storage.
But it is a start.

What part of this surprises you?

With a replication of 3, you have effectively the bandwidth of your 2 SSDs
(for small writes, not the case here) and the bandwidth of your 4 HDDs
available. 
Given overhead, other inefficiencies and the fact that this is not a
sequential write from the HDD perspective, 320MB/s isn't all that bad.
Though with your setup I would have expected something faster, but NOT the
theoretical 600MB/s 4 HDDs will do in sequential writes.

Bluestore has no journals, don't confuse it and the people you're asking
for help.

If an OSD has no fast WAL/DB, it will drag the overall speed down.

Verify and if so fix this and re-test.
