Re: Increase tcmalloc thread cache bytes - still recommended?

I believe that the standard mechanisms for launching OSDs already sets the thread cache higher than default.  It's possible we might be able to relax that now as async messenger doesn't thrash the cache as badly as simple messenger did.  I suspect there's probably still some value to increasing it over default though for SSDs.

I don't think that's a default recommendation — Ceph is doing more configuration of tcmalloc these days, tcmalloc has resolved a lot of bugs, and that was only ever a thing that mattered for SSD-backed OSDs anyway.

     It seems that the Ceph community no longer recommends changing to

     Is it still recommended to increase the tcmalloc thread cache
    bytes, or is that recommendation old and no longer applicable?
