You can try PetaSAN www.petasan.org we use rbd backend by SUSE. It
works out of the box.

Mark;
Are you suggesting some other means to configure iSCSI targets with Ceph?
If so, how do configure for non-tcmu?
The iSCSI clients are not RBD aware, and I can't really make them RBD aware.
Thank you,

Subject: Re: Ceph iSCSI Performance
I don't have super recent results, but we do have some test data from
last year looking at kernel rbd, rbd-nbd, rbd+tcmu, fuse, etc:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1oJZ036QDbJQgv2gXts1oKKhMOKXrOI2XLTkvlsl9bUs/edit?usp=sharing
Generally speaking going through the tcmu layer was slower than kernel
rbd or librbd directly (sometimes by quite a bit!). There was also more
client side CPU usage per unit performance as well (which makes sense
since there's additional work being done). You may be able to get some
of that performance back with more clients as I do remember there being
some issues with iodepth and tcmu. The only setup that I remember being
slower at the time though was rbd-fuse which I don't think is even
really maintained.

All;
I've finally gotten around to setting up iSCSI gateways on my primary production cluster, and performance is terrible.
We're talking 1/4 to 1/3 of our current solution.
I see no evidence of network congestion on any involved network link. I see no evidence CPU or memory being a problem on any involved server (MON / OSD / gateway /client).
What can I look at to tune this, preferably on the iSCSI gateways?
