HI,

so it should be 8 threads?


How many threads are you using with rados bench? Don't touch the op threads from the start, usually the default is just fine.

All 3 machines have more or less the same disk load at the same time.

the question is: is this a poor performance to get max 500mb/write with 45 
disks and replica 2 or should I expect this?


You should be able to get more as long as the I/O is done in parallel.

Hi,

I have a ceph cluster setup (with 45 sata disk journal on disks) and
get only 450mb/sec writes seq (maximum playing around with threads in
rados
bench) with replica of 2


How many threads?

Which is about ~20Mb writes per disk (what y see in atop also)
theoretically with replica2 and having journals on disk should be 45 X
100mb (sata) / 2 (replica) / 2 (journal writes) which makes it 1125
satas in reality have 120mb/sec so the theoretical output should be more.

I would expect to have between 40-50mb/sec for each sata disk

Can somebody confirm that he can reach this speed with a setup with
journals on the satas (with journals on ssd speed should be 100mb per disk)?
or does ceph only give about ¼ of the speed for a disk? (and not the ½
as expected because of journals)


Did you verify how much each machine is doing? It could be that the data is not 
distributed evenly and that on a certain machine the drives are doing 50MB/sec.

My setup is 3 servers with: 2 x 2.6ghz xeons, 128gb ram 15 satas for
ceph (and ssds for system) 1 x 10gig for external traffic, 1 x 10gig
for osd traffic with reads I can saturate the network but writes is
far away. And I would expect at least to saturate the 10gig with
sequential writes also


Should be possible, but with 3 servers the data distribution might not be 
optimal causing a lower write performance.

I've seen 10Gbit write performance on multiple clusters without any problems.

Thank you
