Ceph reading and writing performance problems, fast reading and slow writing

Hello, we need to migrate all cloud environments to Proxmox. At present, I am evaluating and testing Proxmox+Ceph+OpenStack.

But now we are facing the following difficulties:

  1. When VMware vSAN was migrated to ceph, I found that hdd+ssd performed very poorly in ceph, and the write performance was very poor. Performance is far less than vSAN
  2. The sequential writing performance of ceph in the full flash memory structure is not as good as that of a single hard disk, or even a single mechanical hard disk
  3. In using the hdd+ssd structure in bcache, the sequential write performance of ceph is far lower than that of a single hard disk

Please forgive my poor English.

Conclusions

  1. It can be seen that the gap between the write performance of ceph (106.43MB/s) and the write performance of physical disk (1262.63MB/s) is huge, and even the RND4K Q1 T1 directly becomes a mechanical hard disk
  2. One or more OSDs and one or more machines have little impact on ceph (it may be that my number of clusters is not enough)
  3. The ceph cluster built with three nodes will cause the disk read performance to drop by half and the write performance to drop by a quarter or more

2 - bcache

Test results of hdd+ssd mixed disk ceph architecture accelerated by bcache We can see that READ has improved significantly, but WRITE is still very poor

Even multiple osds on one disk cannot solve the WRITE problem

Detailed test data: https://www.reddit.com/r/ceph/comments/xnse2j/comment/j6qs57g/?context=3

If I use VMware vSAN, I can easily accelerate the speed of hdd to ssd, and I can hardly perceive the existence of hdd (I haven't compared it in detail, I just by feeling)

3 - Test report analysis of other disciplines

I analyzed and compared several reports, and the summary is as follows

Proxmox-VE_Ceph-Benchmark-201802.pdf

Proxmox-VE_Ceph-Benchmark-202009-rev2.pdf

Dell_R730xd_RedHat_Ceph_Performance_SizingGuide_WhitePaper.pdf

micron_9300_and_red_hat_ceph_reference_architecture.pdf

1) - pve 201802

According to the report, the test scale is 6 x Server,Each server 4 x Samsung SM863 Series, 2.5", 240 GB SSD, SATA-3 (6 Gb/s) MLC.

# Samsung SM863 Series, 2.5", 240 GB SSD

|. IOPS      |    97000.00|    20000.00|

Report result display

# 3 Node Cluster/ 4 x Samsung SM863 as OSD per Node
# rados bench 60 write -b 4M -t 16

# 100 Gbit Network
|------------|------------|------------|
|SEQ4M Q? T16|     3087.82|     1011.63|

We can see that the impact of network bandwidth on performance is huge. Although the performance under the 10 Gbit network is insufficient, at least the read and write performance approaches the bandwidth limit However, looking at my test results, WRITE is very bad (296.25MB/s)

2) - pve 202009

According to the report, the test scale is 3 x Server; Each server 4 x Micron 9300 Max 3.2 TB (MTFDHAL3T2TDR); 1 x 100 GbE DACs, in a full-mesh topology

# Micron 9300 Max 3.2 TB (MTFDHAL3T2TDR)

|. latency ms|            |        0.02| (from the report)

Report result display

|Name        |  Read(MB/s)| Write(MB/s)|

|SEQ4M Q? T1 |     7176.00|     2581.00| (SEQUENTIAL BANDWIDTH BY NUMBER OF JOBS)

|. IOPS      |    21502.00|     7248.00| (RANDOM IO/S BY NUMBER OF JOBS)

Similarly, the RND4K Q1 T1 WRITE test result is very bad, only 7k iops, and the physical disk has 51k iops, which I feel is unacceptable.

3) - Dell R730xd report

According to the report, the test scale is 5 x Storage Server; Each Server 12HDD+3SSD, 3 x replication 2 x 10GbE NIC

# Test results extracted from the report
# Figure 8  Throughput/server comparison by using different configurations
|Name        |  Read(MB/s)| Write(MB/s)|
|------------|------------|------------|
|SEQ4M Q64T1 |     1150.00|      300.00|

In this case, the WRITE in the SEQ4M Q64T1 test result is only about 300MB/s, which is about twice that of a single SAS, that is, 2 x 158.16 MB/s (4M blocks). This makes me unbelievable. It's even faster than my nvme disk. However, another important fact is that 12 * 5=60 HDDs have only 300MB/s sequential write speed. Is this performance loss too large?

4) - Micron report

According to the report, the test scale is 3 x Storage Server;Each Server 10 x micron 9300MAX 12.8T,2 x replication ,2 x 100GbE NIC

# (I don't know if there is a problem reported on the official website. There is no performance loss here)

It has to be said that the official test platform of Micron is too high-end for our small and medium-sized enterprises to afford. From the results, WRITE is close to the performance of a single physical disk. Does it mean that if only a single node and a single disk are used, the WRITE performance will drop to 477k/30=15.9k iops If so, this will be the performance of sata ssd.

Finally, the question I want to know is:

  1. How to fix the write performance problem in ceph? Can ceph achieve the same performance as VMware vSAN.
  2. The results show that the performance of full flash disk is not as good as that of hdd+ssd. So if I do not use bcache, what should I do to fix the performance problem of ceph full flash disk?
  3. Is there a better solution for the hdd+ssd architecture?

  • Maybe your network is to slow? The 106.43MB/s sounds like a Gigabit replication problem and the read speeds are only local so its faster?
