Fwd: How to tune Linux VFS readahead size

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

 



Hi, everyone,

I just want to know whether there is better way to make Linux VFS read
ahead more aggressive (from my reading the source code, the maximum
read ahead of file is statically set to 2MB). E.g., to change the read
ahead window to 64MB.

What I am doing is tuning CEPHFS read performance, however, remote is
very poor (100+MB) comparing to local test (374MB). I am testing using
dd (this should also the case for most real-life scenarios), so an
aggressive read ahead policy should be really help for me to make the
IO asynchronous and make the backend disks running concurrently.

Thanks in advance!
Peter
