Hi,

thanks for all the replies.

I've found the issue: 
The Samsung nvme SSD has poor performance with sync=1. It reach only 4/5 k iops 
with randwrite ops.

Using Intel DC S3700 SSDs I'm able to saturate the CPU.

I'm using hammer v 0.94.5 on Ubuntu 14.04 and 3.19.0-31 kernel

What do you think about Intel 750 series : 
http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/solid-state-drives/solid-state-drives-750-series.html

I plan to use it for cache layer ( one for host - is it a problem? )
Behind the cache layer I plan to use Mechanical HDD with Journal on SSD drives.

What do you think about it?

Thanks
Regards,
Matteo

Another point,
As Christian mentioned, try to evaluate O_DIRECT|O_DSYNC performance of a SSD 
before choosing that for Ceph..
Try to run with direct=1 and sync =1 with fio to a raw ssd drive..

Thanks & Regards
Somnath

One thing, *don't* trust iostat disk util% in case of SSDs..100% doesn't mean 
you are saturating SSDs there..I have seen a large performance delta even if 
iostat is reporting 100% disk util in both the cases.
Also, the ceph.conf file you are using is not optimal..Try to add these..

debug_lockdep = 0/0
debug_context = 0/0
debug_crush = 0/0
debug_buffer = 0/0
debug_timer = 0/0
debug_filer = 0/0
debug_objecter = 0/0
debug_rados = 0/0
debug_rbd = 0/0
debug_journaler = 0/0
debug_objectcatcher = 0/0
debug_client = 0/0
debug_osd = 0/0
debug_optracker = 0/0
debug_objclass = 0/0
debug_filestore = 0/0
debug_journal = 0/0
debug_ms = 0/0
debug_monc = 0/0
debug_tp = 0/0
debug_auth = 0/0
debug_finisher = 0/0
debug_heartbeatmap = 0/0
debug_perfcounter = 0/0
debug_asok = 0/0
debug_throttle = 0/0
debug_mon = 0/0
debug_paxos = 0/0
debug_rgw = 0/0

You didn't mention anything about your cpu, considering you have powerful cpu 
complex for SSDs tweak this to high number of shards..It also depends on number 
of OSDs per box..

osd_op_num_threads_per_shard
osd_op_num_shards


Don't need to change the following..

osd_disk_threads
osd_op_threads


Instead, try increasing..

filestore_op_threads

Use the following in the global section..

ms_dispatch_throttle_bytes = 0
throttler_perf_counter = false

Change the following..
filestore_max_sync_interval = 1   (or even lower, need to lower 
filestore_min_sync_interval as well)


I am assuming you are using hammer and newer..

Thanks & Regards
Somnath

Try increasing the following to very big numbers..

Use the following..

osd_enable_op_tracker = false

Indeed. Don't expect Ceph to be near raw SSD performance.

However he writes that per iostat the SSD is fully utilized.

Matteo, can you run run atop instead of iostat and confirm that:

a) utilization of the SSD is 100%.
b) CPU is not the bottleneck.

My guess would be these particular NVMe SSDs might just suffer from the same 
direct sync I/O deficiencies as other Samsung SSDs.
This feeling is re-affirmed by seeing Samsung listing them as a Client SSDs, 
not data center one.
