Hello, A couple days ago I increased the rbd cache size from the default to 256MB/osd on a small 4 node, 6 osd/node setup in a test/lab setting. The rbd volumes are all vm images with writeback cache parameters and steady if only a few mb/sec writes going on. Logging mostly. I noticed the recovery throughput went down 10x - 50x . Using Ceph nautilus. Am I seeing a coincidence or should recovery throughput tank when rbd cache sizes go up? The underlying pools are mirrored on three disks each on a different nodes. Thanks!
