I can confirm that now :(

This might have been true for hammer and older versions of ceph. From
what I can tell now, every snapshot taken reduces performance of the
entire cluster :(

So it looks like we were too naive in thinking that snapshots of VMs
done in ceph could be a viable backup solution. Which brings me to the
question, what are others doing for VM backup?
