>From my experience, that would cause you some troubles as it would throw the entire pool into the deletion queue to be processed as it cleans up the disks and everything. I would suggest using a pool listing from `rados -p .rgw.buckets ls` and iterate on that using some scripts around the `rados -p .rgw.buckest rm <obj-name>` command that you could stop, restart at a faster pace, slow down, etc. Once the objects in the pool are gone, you can delete the empty pool without any problems. I like this option because it makes it simple to stop it if you're impacting your VM traffic.
