I am happy to say, this seems to have been the solution.

After running

 ceph config set global rbd_cache false

I can now run the full 256 thread varient,
fio  --direct=1 --rw=randwrite --bs=4k --ioengine=libaio  --filename=/dev/rbd0 
--iodepth=256  --numjobs=1 --time_based --group_reporting --name=iops-test-job 
--runtime=120 --eta-newline=1


and there is no longer a noticeable performance dip.

Thanks Sebastian

Hi,

check your rbd cache, by default it's enabled, for ssd/nvme better is to 
disable it. Looks like your cache/buffers are full and need flush. It 
could harmful your env.

BR,
Sebastian
