Thanks for reply.

The description of server have an error: not 20 core with 2.4Ghz per core, this 
is 18 core with 2.7Ghz per core.

Yes, I also think that an any cpu that I can use will be not enough the maximum 
out of these disks.
I think, maybe in future ceph will be better in CPU consumption issue and these 
CPU can server more IOPS than now.

By now my idea is do decrease a CPU consumtion by use SPDK and RDMA technology. 
Hope that SPDK and RDMA is now prodaction use ready.

To get the maximum out of your NVMe you will need higher clocked CPUs. 3.5Ghz 
or something.

However, I'm still not convinced you will get the maximum out of your NVMe with 
Ceph.

Although you are looking into 'partitioning' your NVMe with SPDK I would look 
at less core which are clocked higher.
