Also, what sort of iowait percentages are you seeing?

Hi Lindsay,

With NVME journals on a 3 node 4 OSD cluster if I do a quick dd of a
1GB file on a VM I can see 2.34Gbps on the storage network straight
away so if I was only using 1Gbps here the network would be a
bottlekneck. If I perform the same in 2 VMs traffic hits 4.19Gbps on
the storage network.

The throughput in the VM is 1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 3.43556
s, 313 MB/s (R=3)

Would be very interested in hearing more about your gluster setup.. I
don't know anything about it - how many nodes are involved?

Can't say I saw that on our cluster.

- 3 Nodes
- 3 OSD's per Node
- SSD journals for each OSD.
- 2*1G Eth in LACP Bond dedicated to Ceph
- 1G Admin Net
- Size = 3 (Replica 3)

Never came close to maxing out 1 1Gbps connection, write throughput and IOPS
are terrible. Read is pretty good though.

Currently trialing Gluster 3.7.11 on ZFS Bricks, Replica 3 also. Triple the
throughput ans IOPS I was getting with Ceph, maxes out the 2*1G connection,
also seems to deal with VM I/O spikes better too, not letting other VM's be
stalled.

Not convinced its as robust as Ceph yet, give it a few more weeks. It does
cope very well with failover and brick heals (using 64MB shards).
