Eddy Truyen updated CASSANDRA-15717:
------------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
Status: Resolved (was: Triage Needed)
> Benchmark performance difference between Docker and Kubernetes when running
> Cassandra:2.2.16 official Docker image
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: CASSANDRA-15717
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15717
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Test/benchmark
> Reporter: Eddy Truyen
> Priority: Normal
> Attachments: nodetool-compaction-history-docker-cassandra.txt,
> nodetool-compaction-history-kubeadm-cassandra.txt

> Sorry for the slightly irrelevant post. This is not an issue with Cassandra
> but possibly with the interaction between Cassandra and Kubernetes.
> We experienced a performance degradation when running a single Cassandra
> instance inside kubeadm 1.14 in comparison with running the Docker container
> stand-alone.
> A write-only workload (YCSB benchmark workload A - Load phase) using the
> following user table:
>
> {{ cqlsh> create keyspace ycsb
> WITH REPLICATION = \{'class' : 'SimpleStrategy', 'replication_factor': 1 }
> ;
> cqlsh> USE ycsb;
> cqlsh> create table usertable (
> y_id varchar primary key,
> field0 varchar,
> field1 varchar,
> field2 varchar,
> field3 varchar,
> field4 varchar,
> field5 varchar,
> field6 varchar,
> field7 varchar,
> field8 varchar,
> field9 varchar);}}
> And using the following script:
>
> {{python ./bin/ycsb load cassandra2-cql -P workloads/workloada -p
> recordcount=1500000 -p
> operationcount=1500000 -p measurementtype=raw -p
> cassandra.connecttimeoutmillis=60000 -p
> cassandra.readtimeoutmillis=60000 -target 1500 -threads 20 -p hosts=localhost

> We used the following image: {{decomads/cassandra:2.2.16}}, which uses the
> official {{cassandra:2.2.16}} as base image and adds a readinessProbe to it.
> We used identical Docker configuration parameters by ensuring that the output
> of {{docker inspect}} is as much as possible the same. First we got the YCSB
> benchmark in a container that is co-located with the cassandra container in
> one pod. Kubernetes starts these containers then with network mode
> {{net=container:...}} This is a separate container that links up the ycsb and
> cassandra containers within the same network space so they can talk via
> localhost. By this we hope to avoid network plugin interference from the CNI
> plugin.
> We ran the docker-only container within the Kubernetes node using the default
> bridge network
> We first performed the experiment on an Openstack VM Ubuntu 16:04 (4GB, 4 CPU
> cores, 50GB), that runs on a physical nodes with 16 CPU cores. Storage is
> Ceph however and therefore distributed
> To avoid distributed storage of ceph, we repeated the experiment also on
> minikube+VirtualBox (12GB, 4 CPU cores, 30 GB) on a Windows 10 laptop with 4
> cores/8 logical processors and 16GB RAM. However the same performance
> degradation was measured.
> Observations (On Ubuntu-OpenStack)
> * Docker:
> ** Mean average response latency YCSB benchmark: 1,5 ms-1.7ms
> * Kubernetes
> ** Mean average response latency YCSB benchmark: 2.7 ms-3ms
> * CPU usage of the Cassandra Daemon JVM is way lower than Kubernetes (see my
> position paper: [https://lirias.kuleuven.be/2788169?limo=0]):
> Possible causes:
> * Network overhead of virtual bridge in Kubernetes is not the cause of the
> problem in our opinion.
> ** We repeated the experiment where we ran the Docker-Only containers inside
> a Kubernetes node and we linked the containers using the --net=container:
> mode mechanisms as similar as possible as we could. The YCSB latency stayed
> the same.
> * Disk/io bottleneck: Nodetool tablestats are very similar. Cassandra
> containers are configured to write data to a filesystem that is mounted from
> the host inside the container. Exactly the same Docker mount type is used
> ** Write latency is very stable over multiple runs
> * Kubernetes for ycsb user table: 0.0167 ms.
> * Write latency Docker for ycsb usertable: 0.0150 ms.
> ** Compaction_history/compaction_in_progress is also very similar (see
> attached files)
> )
> Do you know of any other causes that might explain the difference in reported
> YCSB reponse latency? Could it be the the Cassandra Session is closed by
> Kubernetes after each request? How can I diagnose this?
