Good afternoon everybody! I have the following scenario: Pool RBD replication x3 5 hosts with 12 SAS spinning disks each I'm using exactly the following line with FIO to test: fio -ioengine=libaio -direct=1 -invalidate=1 -name=test -bs=4M -size=10G -iodepth=16 -rw=write -filename=./test.img If I increase the blocksize I can easily reach 1.5 GBps or more. But when I use blocksize in 4K I get a measly 12 Megabytes per second, which is quite annoying. I achieve the same rate if rw=read. If I use librbd's cache I get a considerable improvement in writing, but reading remains the same. I already tested with rbd_read_from_replica_policy=balance but I didn't notice any difference. I tried to leave readahead enabled by setting rbd_readahead_disable_after_bytes=0 but I didn't see any difference in sequential reading either. Note: I tested it on another smaller cluster, with 36 SAS disks and got the same result. I don't know exactly what to look for or configure to have any improvement. _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list -- ceph-users@xxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to ceph-users-leave@xxxxxxx
