It's not magic — I haven't done extensive testing but I believe people see aggregate IOPs of about what you can calculate: (number of storage disks * IOPS per disks) / (replication level) The journaling bumps that up a little bit for bursts, of course; similarly if you're doing it on a brand new RBD image it can be a bit slower since you need to create all the objects as well as write data to them. You need to architect your storage system to match your requirements. If you want to run write-heavy databases on RBD, there are people doing that. They're using SSDs and are very pleased with its performance. *shrug* -Greg -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe ceph-devel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
