As long as the request is for an object which is up to date on the primary, the request will be served without waiting for recovery. A request only waits on recovery if the particular object being read or written must be recovered. Your issue was that recovering the particular object being requested was unreasonably slow due to silliness in the recovery code which you disabled by disabling osd_recover_clone_overlap.
In cases where the primary osd is significantly behind, we do make one of the other osds primary during recovery in order to expedite requests (pgs in this state are shown as remapped). -Sam On Wed, Aug 21, 2013 at 11:21 AM, Stefan Priebe <s.pri...@profihost.ag> wrote: > Am 21.08.2013 17:32, schrieb Samuel Just: > >> Have you tried setting osd_recovery_clone_overlap to false?
