What is the workload and what are you using to measure the throughput?
If you are using fio, what arguments are you using? And, could you
change the ioengine to rbd and re-run the test from the target system so
we can check if rbd is slow or iscsi?
For small IOs, 60 is about right.
For 128-512K IOs you should be able to get around 300 MB/s for writes
and 600 for reads.
1. Increase max_data_area_mb. This is a kernel buffer lio/tcmu uses to
pass data between the kernel and tcmu-runner. The default is only 8MB.
In gwcli cd to your disk and do:
# reconfigure max_data_area_mb %N
where N is between 8 and 2048 MBs.
2. The Linux kernel target only allows 64 commands per iscsi session by
default. We increase that to 128, but you can increase this to 512.
In gwcli cd to the target dir and do
reconfigure cmdsn_depth 512
For these commands, need the disk is detached or can be running "hot"?
3. I think ceph-iscsi and lio work better with higher queue depths so if
you are using fio you want higher numjobs and/or iodepths.
