.New shard and multiple worker threads configuration now yields significant results in terms of consistency of client Previously, scheduling with mClock was not optimal with multiple OSD shards on a HDD based Ceph cluster. Hence, the client throughput was found to be inconsistent across test runs coupled with multiple reported slow requests during recovery and backfill operations. With this fix, HDD OSD shard configuration is updated as follows: - osd_op_num_shards_hdd = 1 (was 5) - osd_op_num_threads_per_shard_hdd = 5 (was 1) Now, the new shard and multiple worker threads configuration yields significant results in terms of consistency of client and recovery throughput across multiple test runs.
