Hmm..Thanks Adam, so, one of the cleanups on the Ceph path could be to introduce make_shared.. We will come up with a prototype of optimized io path with removing unnecessary use of shared_ptr and see how much overall gain we are getting..

It is part of c++14 I guess.. std::make_shared is in C++11, std::make_unique is in C++14. In addition to performance, std::make_shared is also more correct, in that: std::shared_ptr<T>(new T) can leak object allocated by 'new T' if the allocation for the shared_ptr fails. std::make_unique is nice for cleanliness and symmetry, but doesn't add anything for performance or safety. (Also you can write your own make_unique, where make_shared is intimately involved with the details of shared_ptr.) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe ceph-devel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
