Hi,

I'm wondering if anyone is using cinder and is having issue with the list 
volumes API call.

We have a grizzly install and we're at about 160 active volumes in cinder at 
the moment.

To do "cinder list" with a tenant that has about 140 volumes it takes about 6 
seconds.
API calls on a specific volume are done in about 0.1 seconds so I'm happy with 
the API servers, it's the code I'm worried about.

Doing a "cinder list --all-tenants" as an admin it takes about 20 seconds.

Looking at the code it seems as an admin it will iterate over every volume 3 
times and do a db requests on each volume.
As a normal user it iterates over every volume once.

The for loops are for adding glance image information and as an admin it also 
adds host and tenant information which is in the same table so it's a bit 
strange that it's doing more DB calls.

Does anyone use cinder with more that just a couple of active volumes and if so 
how do they when requests are so slow?
We have 36 cinder-api servers handling requests and they aren't under 
significant load. Also our DB cluster is handling things fine.

Cheers,
Sam
