Note that librados can access data from all nodes in the cluster while iSCSI 
will funnel the data through whatever node or proxy is hosting the iSCSI 
target.  What does your overall network and storage layout look like?  Number 
of systems, number and type of disks, how are Ceph journals set up, etc?

Subject: Re: iscsi over RBD performance tips?

iscsi performance to a RAM disk iscsi target using the same fio parameters, 
yields a 1GB/second throughput for both read and write operations, compared to 
about 400(r)/400(w) MB/second using an RBD based backend over a 10GB link.

My fio job file looks like this (change 'randread' to 'randwrite' for the write 
test and modify the filename device to switch between the ramdisk and rbd).

[default]
rw=randread
size=10g
bs=1m
ioengine=libaio
direct=1
numjobs=1
filename=/dev/sdb
runtime=600
write_bw_log=iscsiread
iodepth=256
iodepth_batch=256
