Yes indeed, but for osd's writing the replication or erasure objects you 
get sort of parrallel processing not?



Multicast traffic from storage has a point in things like the old 
Windows provisioning software Ghost where you could netboot a room full 
och computers, have them listen to a mcast stream of the same data/image 
and all apply it at the same time, and perhaps re-sync potentially 
missing stuff at the end, which would be far less data overall than 
having each client ask the server(s) for the same image over and over. 
In the case of ceph, I would say it was much less probable that many 
clients would ask for exactly same data in the same order, so it would 
just mean all clients hear all traffic (or at least more traffic than 
they asked for) and need to skip past a lot of it.

        I am still testing with ceph mostly, so my apologies for bringing 
up 
        something totally useless. But I just had a chat about compuverde 
        storage. They seem to implement multicast in a scale out solution. 
        
        I was wondering if there is any experience here with compuverde and 
how 
        it compared to ceph. And maybe this multicast approach could be 
        interesting to use with ceph?
