Hi Lindsay

Just noticed that you have your ZFS logs on a single disk, you like living dangerously ;-) a you should have a mirror for the slog to be on the safe side.

Cheers,
M.

All my nodes are running RAIDZ10. I have SSD 5GB slog partion, 100GB Cache

Cache is hardly used, I think you'll find with VM workload you're only
getting around 4% hit rates. You're better off using the SSD for slog,
it improves sync writes consdierably.

I tried the Samsung 850 pro, found them pretty bad in practice. Their
sustained seq writes were atrocious in production and their lifetime
very limted. Gluster/VM usage resultys in very high writes, ours all
packed it in under a year.

We have Kingston Hyper somethings :) they have a TBW of 300TB which is
much better and their uncompressed write speed is very high.

bonnie++ on the ZFS pools and Crystal DiskMark in the VM's, plus test
real world workloads.
