Hi all, we have a new Ceph cluster and have some very bad/strange performance behavior. I really don't understand what I'm doing wrong here and would be more than happy if anyone has an idea. Even a hint on what to look at would be helpful. Some Information: Machines (8 Nodes) per Node: - CPU 2x Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6258R CPU @ 2.70GHz (28 Cores) - 384 GB RAM - 20x Dell Ent NVMe AGN RI U.2 7.68TB (for OSDs) - 4x 25G LACP Backend - 2x 25G LACP Frontend - OS: - Ubuntu 22.04 - Kernel: 5.15.0 - Ceph: - Version 18.2.4 - 160 osds - 4096 PGs for the VM pool I took some fio benchmarks from the Proxmox Ceph Performance Paper: https://www.proxmox.com/images/download/pve/docs/Proxmox-VE_Ceph-Benchmark-2... The First test should have about 1500 IOPS (Proxmox Paper: 1806). We only get 170. root@ceph001:/mnt# fio --ioengine=psync --filename=test_fio --size=9G --time_based --name=fio --group_reporting --runtime=60 --direct=1 --sync=1 --rw=write --bs=4K --numjobs=1 --iodepth=1 fio: (g=0): rw=write, bs=(R) 4096B-4096B, (W) 4096B-4096B, (T) 4096B-4096B, ioengine=psync, iodepth=1 fio-3.28 Starting 1 process fio: Laying out IO file (1 file / 9216MiB) Jobs: 1 (f=1): [W(1)][100.0%][w=680KiB/s][w=170 IOPS][eta 00m:00s] fio: (groupid=0, jobs=1): err= 0: pid=174797: Wed Jan 22 20:19:19 2025 write: IOPS=202, BW=811KiB/s (831kB/s)(47.5MiB/60003msec); 0 zone resets clat (usec): min=2185, max=20081, avg=4925.43, stdev=931.63 lat (usec): min=2186, max=20082, avg=4926.19, stdev=931.63 clat percentiles (usec): | 1.00th=[ 3425], 5.00th=[ 3818], 10.00th=[ 3982], 20.00th=[ 4293], | 30.00th=[ 4490], 40.00th=[ 4686], 50.00th=[ 4817], 60.00th=[ 5014], | 70.00th=[ 5211], 80.00th=[ 5407], 90.00th=[ 5800], 95.00th=[ 6063], | 99.00th=[ 8586], 99.50th=[ 9503], 99.90th=[12256], 99.95th=[13304], | 99.99th=[19006] bw ( KiB/s): min= 672, max= 1000, per=100.00%, avg=813.11, stdev=73.18, samples=119 iops : min= 168, max= 250, avg=203.28, stdev=18.29, samples=119 lat (msec) : 4=10.24%, 10=89.43%, 20=0.32%, 50=0.01% cpu : usr=0.25%, sys=2.57%, ctx=36503, majf=0, minf=15 IO depths : 1=100.0%, 2=0.0%, 4=0.0%, 8=0.0%, 16=0.0%, 32=0.0%,
