And just to be pedantic, the PGP_NUM is the same?

The formula is actually OSDs * 100 / replication, so in your case
12*100/2=600. Now with small clusters is is better to err on the large
side, see the next paragraph.

Now 1328 (just out of curiosity, how did you arrive at that number?) isn't
a power of 2 and the happy documentation says:
---
The result should be rounded up to the nearest power of two. Rounding up is 
optional, but recommended if you want to ensure that all placement groups are 
roughly the same size.

Since you can't go down, the only way is up. To 2048
See it as an early preparation step towards the time when you reach 48
OSDs. ^o^

Increasing PG (and PGP) will cause data movement of course, so do this in
an off-peak time and start with a small increment (firefly won't even let
you add more than 256 PGs at a time).

This should give you a much smoother distribution. 

Regards,

Christian
