Dear Ceph folks,

When setting up an all flash Ceph cluster with 8 nodes, I am wondering whether 
should i disable (or turn off)  DB and WAL for SSD based OSDs for better 8K IO 
performance. 

Nornally for HDD OSDs, i used to create a 30GB+ partitions on separate SSDs as 
DB/WAL for them. For (enterprise level)SSD-based OSDs,  one way is to create a 
partition on every SSD OSD as DB/WAL, and then use the rest as the data 
partition of the OSD. However, I am wondering whether such operation would 
improve performance or degrade performance? Since WAL is just a pure write 
buffering, it could cause double writes on the same SSD and thus cause damage 
to the performance...

Any comments, suggestions are highly appreciated,

Samuel
