Lerh Chuan Low commented on CASSANDRA-8460: ------------------------------------------- Hi [~rustyrazorblade], Sorry for the delay - usually a little bit tricky to get the setup right and also had a few hiccups with trunk. Over the last few weeks we've done benchmarking on AWS using 4 different 3 node clusters (each with their own dedicated stress box) - a LVM setup, a HDD setup, my code setup, and a SSD setup. The details are in here: [https://docs.google.com/document/d/164qZ3zpG5pm_j4r9yWccmMiZh6XK4LsqnZBP7Iu3gII/edit#|https://docs.google.com/document/d/164qZ3zpG5pm_j4r9yWccmMiZh6XK4LsqnZBP7Iu3gII/edit] It details the way I've stressed and the way I've setup LVM as also a write through. We've done 5 takes and in those cases it doesn't seem like LVM performs very well even when compared to the HDD. That said, the archiving code is also not as good as SSD, I think it may be related to the partition being spread across both the slow and the fast. LVM I know the volume is being used (based on cloudwatch), I guess it's kind of unintuitive for me how it may be this case because it did really well in the fio benchmark you ran. Would you (or anyone, really) like to take a look and give your thoughts? Maybe if the test is skewed against LVM and we can tune it better?
