You're not reading off of the journal in any case (it's only read on restart). If I were to guess then the SSD journaling is just building up enough dirty data ahead of the backing filesystem that if you do a read it takes a little longer for the data to be readable through the local filesystem. There have been a number of threads here about configuring the journal which you might want to grab out of an archiving system and look at. :) -Greg > > > > Thanks > > Pankaj > > > _______________________________________________ > ceph-users mailing list > ceph-users@lists.ceph.com > http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com > _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@lists.ceph.com http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
