Only changing client side ceph.conf and rerunning the tests is sufficient.

Thanks & Regards

Thanks for the quick reply Somnath, will give this a try.

In order to set the rbd cache settings, is it a matter of updating the 
ceph.conf file on the client only prior to running the test, or do I need to 
inject args to all OSDs ?

It may be due to rbd cache effect..
Try the following..

Run your test with direct = 1 both the cases and rbd_cache = false  (disable 
all other rbd cache option as well). This should give you similar result like 
krbd.

In direct =1 case, we saw ~10-20% degradation if we make rbd_cache = true.
But, direct = 0 case, it could be more as you are seeing..

I think there is a delta (or need to tune properly) if you want to use rbd 
cache.

Thanks & Regards

Subject: [ceph-users] bad perf for librbd vs krbd using FIO

Hi all,

I am seeing a big discrepancy between librbd and kRBD/ext4 performance using 
FIO with single RBD image. RBD images are coming from same RBD pool, same size 
and settings for both. The librbd results are quite bad by comparison, and in 
addition if I scale up the kRBD FIO job with more jobs/threads it increases up 
to 3-4x results below, but librbd doesn't seem to scale much at all. I figured 
that it should be close to the kRBD result for a single job/thread before 
parallelism comes into play though. RBD cache settings are all default.

I can see some obvious differences in FIO output, but not being well versed 
with FIO I'm not sure what to make of it or where to start diagnosing the 
discrepancy. Hunted around but haven't found anything useful, any 
suggestions/insights would be appreciated.

RBD cache settings:
[root@rcmktdc1r72-09-ac rafaell]# ceph --admin-daemon 
/var/run/ceph/ceph-osd.659.asok config show | grep rbd_cache
    "rbd_cache": "true",
    "rbd_cache_writethrough_until_flush": "true",
    "rbd_cache_size": "33554432",
    "rbd_cache_max_dirty": "25165824",
    "rbd_cache_target_dirty": "16777216",
    "rbd_cache_max_dirty_age": "1",
    "rbd_cache_max_dirty_object": "0",
    "rbd_cache_block_writes_upfront": "false",
[root@rcmktdc1r72-09-ac rafaell]#

This is the FIO job file for the kRBD job:

[root@rcprsdc1r72-01-ac rafaell]# cat ext4_test
; -- start job file --
[global]
rw=rw
size=100g
filename=/mnt/rbd/fio_test_file_ext4
rwmixread=0
rwmixwrite=100
percentage_random=0

direct=0
iodepth=16
thread=1
numjobs=1
[job1]
; -- end job file --

[root@rcprsdc1r72-01-ac rafaell]#

This is the FIO job file for the librbd job:

[root@rcprsdc1r72-01-ac rafaell]# cat fio_rbd_test
; -- start job file --
[global]
rw=rw
size=100g
rwmixread=0
rwmixwrite=100
