I have set up a little ceph installation and added about 80k files of various sizes, then I added 1M files of 1 byte each totalling 1 MB, to see what kind of overhead is incurred per object.

The overhead for adding 1M objects seems to be 12252M/1000000 = 0.012252M or 122 kB per file, which is a bit high, but in line with a min allocation size of 64 kB.
0.012M = 12Kb, not 122.


My ceph.conf file contained this line from when I initially deployed the cluster:
    bluestore min alloc size = 4096

So your  min alloc size settings for the cluster in question is 4K not 64K, right?
And pool replication factor is 3, isn't it?
Then one can probably explain additional 12Gb of raw space as:
1M objects * min_alloc_size * replication_factor = 1E6 * 4096 * 3 = 12GB

How do I set the min alloc size if not in the ceph.conf file?

Is it possible to change bluestore min alloc size for an existing cluster? How?
This is per-osd setting that can't be altered after OSD deployment. So you should either redeploy the cluster totally or redeploy OSDs one by one if you want to preserve your data.


Even at this level of overhead I'm nowhere near to the 1129 kB per file was lost with the real data.
