Hi list,

I'm having trouble with slow requests, they have a noticeable impact on the performance. I'd like to find out, what the root cause is, I guess there are a lot of possible causes. But I'll just describe what I'm seeing and hopefully someone can give advices. I just counted the occurences of "slow request" in the ceph.log in the last couple of days, all OSDs are affected, but host3 stands out:

osd.0   host1   447
osd.1   host1   59
osd.2   host1   1570
osd.13  host1   164
osd.19  host1   25

osd.3   host2   618
osd.4   host2   190
osd.5   host2   240
osd.9   host2   70
osd.10  host2   129

osd.6   host3   4323
osd.7   host3   2116
osd.8   host3   2321
osd.12  host3   5238
osd.11  host3   2019

osd.14  host4   2869
osd.15  host4   2024
osd.16  host4   2399
osd.17  host4   869
osd.18  host4   660

Hosts 1 to 3 have also a monitor running and many other services. Currently, host4 has nothing else to do than running its OSDs, and although the devices are bcached (the others aren't yet), it also shows a significant amount of slow requests. But our monitoring shows that this server is almost bored.

But on host3 we experience load peaks of 18 and higher. This server has not the best hardware and it has many other tasks, so we are wondering if this server can cause all the slow requests. Is it possible that if host3 has a high load or a higher transfer, it produces slow requests which are somehow inherited by the other nodes? How do you deal with these slow requests?

Thanks for any help!

Regards,
Eugen
