Hi, I have single node Swift instance running in a VM. It has: 4 cores, 16 GB memory and 300GB SSD disk
I want to get the best possible throughput from this Swift instance when, say 100 clients are writing data concurrently. Are there any recommendations to achieve this? So far, I've tried the following: 1. I tweaked the # of workers threads in the config files and it seems that I get best results when I have: # grep workers *.conf account-server.conf:workers = 16 container-server.conf:workers = 16 object-server.conf:workers = 64 proxy-server.conf:workers = 64 2. I am fine with not using SSL. 3. Sharding data across multiple containers also gives me better results. I think I also observed better throughput with larger objects, but the object size I need to work with cannot be changed. I have to 64K objects. With these options, the best I got was ~20MB/s, whereas a simple dd shows that the disk is capable of ~128MB/s (1Gbps). Are there other options that I can tweak for getting better throughput? Thanks in advance. -Shri _______________________________________________ Mailing list: http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack
