Rsync is taking 10 hours more. There is also another option, degrading performance on the source. However it is impossible for me to verify this. I have increased the mds_cache_memory_limit from 8GB to 16GB, see what that brings. > >> I think it started being slow, after enabling snapshots on the file >> system. >> >> - how can I determine if mds_cache_memory_limit = 8000000000 is still >> correct? >> >> - how can I test the mds performance from the command line, so I can >> experiment with cpu power configurations, and see if this brings a >> significant change? >> _______________________________________________ >> ceph-users mailing list -- ceph-users@xxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an >> email to ceph-users-leave@xxxxxxx >> > _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list -- ceph-users@xxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to ceph-users-leave@xxxxxxx
