I started with arch-linux & Mimic but it was all manual deployment and development. It takes too much time and requires knowledge. My custom distro worked 4-5 years flawlessly until I hit a rolling-release update problem at one point. These days I use Ubuntu for easy setup and enjoy the pre-tested ceph docker images and auto update. But few months ago with new Ubuntu updates I lost speed and weird problems began like high OSD latency. The root cause was udev, multipath, and scsi related updates against my old ssd drives. Advanced Distros has too many add-ons and I hate it, they always generate weird problems. Try to use minimal distros without weird tunings and complicated extra packages. I think what matters is knowledge on how to select and tune correct kernel versions for your hardware and ceph version. I wonder about SUSE performance. I think it might be a better choice than Ubuntu for Ceph. Any opinions ? Regards.
