Hi Dave,

The SSD journal will help boost iops  & latency which will be more apparent for 
small block sizes. The rados benchmark default block size is 4M, use the -b 
option to specify the size. Try at 4k, 32k, 64k ...
As a side note, this is a rados level test, the rbd image size is not relevant 
here.

Hi all,

We want to compare the performance between HDD partition as the journal (inline 
from OSD disk) and SSD partition as the journal, here is what we have done, we 
have 3 nodes used as Ceph OSD,  each has 3 OSD on it. Firstly, we created the 
OSD with journal from OSD partition, and run "rados bench" utility to test the 
performance, and then migrate the journal from HDD to SSD (Intel S4500) and run 
"rados bench" again, the expected result is SSD partition should be much better 
than HDD, but the result shows us there is nearly no change,

The configuration of Ceph is as below,
pool size: 3
osd size: 3*3
pg (pgp) num: 300
osd nodes are separated across three different nodes
rbd image size: 10G (10240M)

The utility I used is,
rados bench -p rbd $duration write
rados bench -p rbd $duration seq
rados bench -p rbd $duration rand

Is there anything wrong from what I did?  Could anyone give me some suggestion?


Best Regards,
Dave Chen
