I look after 2 Cephfs deployments, both Jewel, been in production since
Jewel went stable so just over a year I think. We've had a really positive
experience, I've not experienced any MDS crashes or read-only operation
(touch wood!). The majority of clients are accessing through gateway
servers re-exporting over SMB and NFS. Data is mixed but lots of image
sequences/video.

Workload is primarily large reads but clients are all 1GbE currently
(gateway servers are on faster links) so I'd say our performance
requirements are modest. If/when we get clients on 10GbE we'll probably
need to start looking at performance more closely, definitely playing
around with stripe settings.

As I think someone already mentioned, the recursive stats are awesome. I
use the Python xattr module to grab the stats and format with the
prettytable library, it's a real pleasure to not have to wait for du to
stat through the directory tree. Thinking about doing something cool with
Kibana in the future.

The main issues we've had are with Kernel NFS, writes are currently slow in
Jewel, see http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/17563. That was fixed in master (
https://github.com/ceph/ceph/pull/11710) but I don't think that will make
its way into Jewel so I'm eagerly awaiting stable Luminous. I've also
experienced nfsd lock ups when OSDs fail.

Hope that helps a bit

I'm not a dev but I can confidently say this is very actively being worked
on.
