Hi Cephers,
While looking at disk utilization on OSD, I noticed the disk was constantly 
busy with large number of small writes, further investigation showed that, as 
radosgw uses xattrs to store metadata (e.g. etag, content-type, etc.), which 
made the xattrs get from local to extents, which incurred extra I/O.

I would like to check if anybody has experience with offloading the metadata to 
omap:
  1> Offload everything to omap? If this is the case, should we make the inode 
size as 512 (instead of 2k)?
  2> Partial offload the metadata to omap, e.g. only offloading the rgw 
specified metadata to omap.

Any sharing is deeply appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks,
Guang
