Yep, that's the main downside of the use of the Carbonara based backend in Gnocchi. But honestly, since it's download/upload are parallel and the file size is quite small, sending a metric should be pretty fast in most circumstances. Though that's sure it's gonna be faster with backends where you just have to send the actual metrics (OpenTSDB or InfluxDB likely). > So I’d like to hear about your opinions, and if there’s already a > solution, please point it to me. I'd love to improve the backends you describe with some sort of `seek' solution, unfortunately I don't think it'll be possible to do so using Swift. Though it might be possible to do so using Ceph and the file based backends, so maybe it'd be worth looking at that.
