And I'm not asking for this feature, but personally I would have split that in read and write promotes. As in, throttle promotes done to satisfy reads, but not for writes (as that will benefit from the faster pool a lot more). > is what you are looking for, I think by default its set to 5MB/s, which > would roughly correlate to why you are only seeing around 8 objects each > time being promoted.

Obviously the defaults were picked to be on the safe side of things, though anybody running a cache tier worth its salt will be able to handle more than 5MB/s. But never mind that, since these parameters are not documented on the cache-tiering documentation page new users like Oliver will get unexpected results. And existing cache-tier users will be rudely surprised, as this isn't mentioned in the changelog either...
