Hello Robert, probably the following tool provides deeper insights whats happening on your osds: https://github.com/scoopex/ceph/blob/master/src/tools/histogram_dump.py https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/28244 https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/288876/58368661-410afa00-7ef0-11e9-9aca-b09d974024a7.png Monitoring virtual machine/client behavior in a comparable way would also be a good thing. @All: Do you know suitable tools? * kernel rbd * rbd-nbd * linux native (i.e. if your want to analyze from inside a kvm or xen vm) (the output of "iostat -N -d -x -t -m 10" seems not to be enough for detailed analytics) Regards Marc Am 24.05.19 um 13:22 schrieb Robert Sander: > Hi, > > we have a small cluster at a customer's site with three nodes and 4 SSD-OSDs each. > Connected with 10G the system is supposed to perform well. > > rados bench shows ~450MB/s write and ~950MB/s read speeds with 4MB objects but only 20MB/s write and 95MB/s read with 4KB objects. > > This is a little bit disappointing as the 4K performance is also seen in KVM VMs using RBD. > > Is there anything we can do to improve performance with small objects / block sizes? > > Jumbo frames have already been enabled. > > 4MB objects write: > > Total time run: 30.218930 > Total writes made: 3391 > Write size: 4194304 > Object size: 4194304 > Bandwidth (MB/sec): 448.858 > Stddev Bandwidth: 63.5044 > Max bandwidth (MB/sec): 552 > Min bandwidth (MB/sec): 320 > Average IOPS: 112 > Stddev IOPS: 15 > Max IOPS: 138 > Min IOPS: 80 > Average Latency(s): 0.142475 > Stddev Latency(s): 0.0990132 > Max latency(s): 0.814715 > Min latency(s): 0.0308732 > > 4MB objects rand read: > > Total time run: 30.169312 > Total reads made: 7223 > Read size: 4194304 > Object size: 4194304 > Bandwidth (MB/sec): 957.662 > Average IOPS: 239 > Stddev IOPS: 23 > Max IOPS: 272 > Min IOPS: 175 > Average Latency(s): 0.0653696 > Max latency(s): 0.517275 > Min latency(s): 0.00201978 > > 4K objects write: > > Total time run: 30.002628 > Total writes made: 165404 > Write size: 4096 > Object size: 4096 > Bandwidth (MB/sec): 21.5351 > Stddev Bandwidth: 2.0575 > Max bandwidth (MB/sec): 22.4727 > Min bandwidth (MB/sec): 11.0508 > Average IOPS: 5512 > Stddev IOPS: 526 > Max IOPS: 5753 > Min IOPS: 2829 > Average Latency(s): 0.00290095 > Stddev Latency(s): 0.0015036 > Max latency(s): 0.0778454 > Min latency(s): 0.00174262 > > 4K objects read: > > Total time run: 30.000538 > Total reads made: 1064610 > Read size: 4096 > Object size: 4096 > Bandwidth (MB/sec): 138.619 > Average IOPS: 35486 > Stddev IOPS: 3776 > Max IOPS: 42208 > Min IOPS: 26264 > Average Latency(s): 0.000443905 > Max latency(s): 0.0123462 > Min latency(s): 0.000123081 > > > Regards _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
