How network latency affects ceph performance really with NVME only storage?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Dear Users,

i recently setup a new ceph 3 node cluster. Network is meshed between all nodes (2 x 25G with DAC).
Storage is flash only (Kioxia 3.2 TBBiCS FLASH 3D TLC, KCMYXVUG3T20)

The latency with ping tests between the nodes shows:

# ping 10.1.3.13
PING 10.1.3.13 (10.1.3.13) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 10.1.3.13: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.145 ms
64 bytes from 10.1.3.13: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.180 ms

64 bytes from 10.1.3.13: icmp_seq=10 ttl=64 time=0.143 ms
64 bytes from 10.1.3.13: icmp_seq=11 ttl=64 time=0.129 ms
--- 10.1.3.13 ping statistics ---
11 packets transmitted, 11 received, 0% packet loss, time 10242ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.110/0.137/0.180/0.022 ms


On another cluster i have much better values, with 10G SFP+ and fibre-cables:

64 bytes from large-ipv6-ip: icmp_seq=42 ttl=64 time=0.081 ms
64 bytes from large-ipv6-ip: icmp_seq=43 ttl=64 time=0.078 ms

64 bytes from large-ipv6-ip: icmp_seq=48 ttl=64 time=0.074 ms

64 bytes from large-ipv6-ip: icmp_seq=50 ttl=64 time=0.077 ms
64 bytes from large-ipv6-ip: icmp_seq=51 ttl=64 time=0.080 ms
64 bytes from large-ipv6-ip: icmp_seq=52 ttl=64 time=0.084 ms
64 bytes from large-ipv6-ip: icmp_seq=53 ttl=64 time=0.084 ms
^C
--- long-ipv6-ip ping statistics ---
53 packets transmitted, 53 received, 0% packet loss, time 53260ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.071/0.082/0.111/0.006 ms

If i want best performance, does the latency difference matter at all? Should i change DAC to SFP-transceivers wwith fibre-cables to improve overall ceph performance or is this nitpicking?

Thanks a lot.

Stefan
