** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  This is to consider/discuss the possibility of whether the Ceph packages 
(UCA) should be built with RelWithDebInfo build option (CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE [0]) 
which can be supplied to the build script do_cmake.sh [1].
  
  Currently, Upstream as well as UCA builds default to 'Debug' [0] builds.
  But is any reason why shouldn't go for RelWithDebInfo (i.e. "Release
  with Debug information")?
  
- There's one issue noted with RelWithDebInfo which has a workaround too
+ There's one issue noted with RelWithDebInfo which has a workaround, too
  [2].
  
  In general, gcc's -O2 [3] build should generate better code as well as
  there's a specific case for Ceph [4] that it improves performance.
+ 
+ Building rocksdb with optimizations enabled improves the performance and
+ rocksdb being an important part of OSD and MON components of Ceph, this
+ enables better performance of Ceph cluster. Comments #17, #18, & #19
+ show relevant test results.

  [Test Case]
  Standard ceph-backed OpenStack regression will be run, consisting of 
juju-deployed OpenStack+ceph and tempest regression testing against the 
deployment.
  
  [Regression Potential]
  As Ponnuvel mentioned, the size of binaries will be slightly bigger and also 
the build/compilation will be longer.
- Ponnuvel also did a search of pponnuvel i'd search of upstream bugs at 
https://tracker.ceph.com and didn't find any relevant bugs.
+ There are no upstream bugs for this. rocksdb is one of the submodules in Ceph 
and how each of the submodule gets built is left to end-users.
