4k IOPS: miserable performance in All-SSD cluster

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

 



Folks,

I am getting somewhat desperate debugging multiple setups here within the same environment. Three clusters, two SSD-only, one HDD-only, and what they all have in common is abysmal 4k IOPS performance when measuring with „rados bench“. Abysmal means: In an All-SSD cluster I will get roughly 400 IOPS over more than 250 devices. I’ve know SAS-SSDs are not ideal, but 250 looks a bit on the low side of things to me.

In the second cluster, also All-SSD based, I get roughly 120 4k IOPS. And the HDD-only cluster delivers 60 4k IOPS. The latter both with substantially fewer devices, granted. But even with 20 HDDs, 68 4k IOPS seems like a very bad value to me.

I’ve tried to rule out everything I know of: BIOS misconfigurations, HBA problems, networking trouble (I am seeing comparably bad values with a size=1 pool) and so further and so on. But to no avail. Has anybody dealt with something similar on Dell hardware or in general? What could cause such extremely bad benchmark results?

I measure with rados bench and qd=1 at 4k block size. „ceph tell osd bench“ with 4k blocks yields 30k+ IOPS for every single device in the big cluster, and all that leads to is 400 IOPS in total when writing to it? Even with no replication in place? That looks a bit off, doesn't it? Any help will be greatly appreciated, thank you very much in advance. Even a pointer to the right direction would be held in high esteem right now. Thank you very much in advance!

Best regards
Martin
