Upgrading the VM to 14.04 and restesting the case *without* direct I get:

- 164 MB/s (librbd)
- 115 MB/s (kernel 3.13)

So managing to almost get native performance out of the librbd case. I tweaked both filestore max and min sync intervals (100 and 10 resp) just to see if I could actually avoid writing to the spinners while the test was in progress (still seeing some, but clearly fewer).

However no improvement at all *with* direct enabled. The output of iostat on the host while the direct test is in progress is interesting:

avg-cpu:  %user   %nice %system %iowait  %steal   %idle
          11.73    0.00    5.04    0.76    0.00   82.47

(sda,b are the spinners sdc,d the ssds). Something is making the journal work very hard for its 4.29 MB/s!

Leaving
off direct I'm seeing about 140 MB/s (librbd) and 90 MB/s (kernel 3.11
[2]). The ssd's can do writes at about 180 MB/s each... which is
something to look at another day[1].
