mostly, due to your kernel buffer of client host

Fill up the image with big write (say 1M) first before reading and you should 
see sane throughput.
 
 
 
Thanks & Regards

Hi Guys,
 
  
we have a ceph cluster with 6 machines (6 OSD per host). 
 
  
1. I created 2 images in Ceph, and map them to another host A (outside the Ceph 
cluster). On host A, I got /dev/rbd0 and /dev/rbd1.
 
  
2. I start two fio job to perform READ test on rbd0 and rbd1. (fio job 
descriptions can be found below)
 
  
"sudo fio fioA.job -output a.txt & sudo  fio fioB.job -output b.txt  & wait"
 
  
3. After the test, in a.txt, we got bw=1162.7MB/s, in b.txt, we get 
bw=3579.6MB/s.
 
  
The results do NOT make sense because there is only one NIC on host A, and its 
limit is 10 Gbps (1.25GB/s).
 
  
 
 
  
I suspect it is because of the cache setting.
 
  
But I am sure that in file /etc/ceph/ceph.conf on host A,I already added:
 
  
[client]
 
  
rbd cache = false
 
  
 
 
  
Could anyone give me a hint what is missing? why....
 
  
Thank you very much.
