Hi Yehuda,

I did try bumping up pg_num on .rgw, .rgw.buckets, and .rgw.buckets.index
from 8 to 220 prior to writing to the list but when I saw no difference in
performance I set back to 8 (by creating new pools etc.)

One thing we have since noticed is that radosgw is validating tokens on
each request; when we use ceph authentication instead we see much more
promising results from swift-bench.

Is there a known issue w/ keystone token caching in radosgw?  It's my
understanding that 10,000 tokens should be cached by default, however this
doesn't appear to be the case.  I've explicitly
set rgw_keystone_token_cache_size in /etc/ceph/ceph.conf on my radosgw node
yet radosgw continues to hit keystone on each request.

Additionally, what does /var/lib/ceph/radosgw/ceph-radosgw.gateway get used
for?  I see the docs mention that it needs to be created, yet it remains
unpopulated on my nodes and doing a quick scan of ceph code I see no
reference to that being used anywhere (thought I may be missing something).

Thanks again for the help!

-Matt
