Hi,
Thank you for any time.
We are tracking some very slow pwrite64() calls to a ceph filesystem -
20965 11:04:24.049186 <... pwrite64 resumed>) = 65536 <4.489594>
20966 11:04:24.069765 <... pwrite64 resumed>) = 65536 <4.508859>
20967 11:04:24.090354 <... pwrite64 resumed>) = 65536 <4.510256>
But other pwrite64()s from the same program in other threads to other files on the same ceph fs seem fine; we cannot really reproduce this, but it happens occasionally.
It seems we are spending some time in ceph_aio_write() when this is happening (see call graph below)
I've noticed THP (transparent Huge Pages) is enabled.
We are running version 15.2.17 on CentOS 7.9
Do not seem to be under any significant memory pressure when this happens, just many threads of this app blocked on i/o in pwrite64()s.
I am suggesting an upgrade, but until then, do you think this situation involves ceph and could be improved if we disable THP ?
Thanks for any advice or suggestion,
