Hi George
Author of Ceph_performance here! :)
I suspect you're running tests with 1 PG. Every PG's requests are always
serialized, that's why OSD doesn't utilize all threads with 1 PG. You need
something like 8 PGs per OSD. More than 8 usually doesn't improve results.
Also note that read tests are meaningless after full overwrite on small OSDs
because everything fits in cache. Restart the OSD to clear it. You can drop the
cache via the admin socket too, but restarting is the simplest way.
I've repeated your test with brd. My results with 8 PGs after filling the RBD
image, turning CPU powersave off and restarting the OSD are:
# fio -name=test -ioengine=rbd -bs=4k -iodepth=1 -rw=randread -pool=ramdisk
-rbdname=testimg
read: IOPS=3586, BW=14.0MiB/s (14.7MB/s)(411MiB/29315msec)
lat (usec): min=182, max=5710, avg=277.41, stdev=90.16
# fio -name=test -ioengine=rbd -bs=4k -iodepth=1 -rw=randwrite -pool=ramdisk

658% CPU
# fio -name=test -ioengine=rbd -bs=4k -iodepth=128 -rw=randread -pool=ramdisk
-rbdname=testimg
read: IOPS=15.7k, BW=61.4MiB/s (64.4MB/s)(979MiB/15933msec)
540% CPU
Basically the same shit as on an NVMe. So even an "in-memory Ceph" is slow,
haha.
