This ties well into a mail I had sitting in my drafts, but never got
around to sending.

Whilst doing some rough benchmarking on bucket index sharding, I ran
into some terrible performance for key deletion on non-existent keys.

Shards did NOT alleviate this performance issue, but did help elsewhere.
Numbers given below are for unsharded buckets; relatively empty buckets
perform worse when shards before performance picks up again.

Test methodology:
- Fire single DELETE key ops to the RGW; not using multi-object delete. 
- I measured the time taken for each delete, and report it here for the
  99% percentile (1% of operations took longer than this). 
- I took at least 1K samples for #keys up to and including 10k keys per
  bucket. For 50k keys/bucket I capped it to the first 100 samples
  instead of waiting 10 hours for the run to complete.
- The DELETE operations were run single-threaded, with no concurrency.

Test environments:
Clusters are were both running Hammer 0.94.5 on Ubuntu precise; the
hardware is a long way from being new; there are no SSDs, the journal is
the first partition on each OSD's disk. The test source host was
unloaded, and approx 1ms of latency away from the RGWs.

Cluster 1 (Congress, ~1350 OSDs; production cluster; haproxy of 10 RGWs)
#keys-in-bucket         time per single key delete
0                                           6.899ms
10                                          7.507ms
100                                        13.573ms
1000                              327.936ms
10000                            4825.597ms
50000                           33802.497ms
100000                          did-not-finish

Cluster 2 (Benjamin, ~50 OSDs; test cluster, practically idle; haproxy of 2 
RGWs)
#keys-in-bucket         time per single key delete
0                                           4.825ms
10                                          6.749ms
100                                         6.146ms
1000                                6.816ms
10000                            1233.727ms
50000                           64262.764ms
100000                          did-not-finish

The cases marked with did-not-finish are where the RGW seems to time out
the operation even with the client having an unlimited timeout. It did
occur also connected directly to CivetWeb and not HAProxy.

I'm not sure why the 100-keys case on the second cluster seems to have
been faster than the 10-key case, but I'm willing to put it down to
statistical noise.

The huge increase at the end, and the operation not returning over 100k
items is concerning.
