I have observed that the current size of 8M gives us pretty poor fragmentation on multi-threaded workloads which do lots of writes. Generally, I can increase the size of local alloc windows and observe a marked decrease in fragmentation, even up and beyond window sizes of 512 megabytes. This makes sense for a couple reasons - larger local alloc means more room for reservation windows. On multi-node workloads the larger local alloc helps as well because we don't have to do window slides as often. Also, I removed the OCFS2_DEFAULT_LOCAL_ALLOC_SIZE constant as it is no longer used and the comment above it was out of date. To test fragmentation, I used a workload which launched 4 threads that did 4k writes into a series of about 140 alternating files. With resv_level=2, and a 4k/4k file system I observed the following average fragmentation for various localalloc= parameters: localalloc= avg. fragmentation 8 48 32 16 64 10 120 7 On larger cluster sizes, the difference is more dramatic. The new default size top out at 256M, which we'll only get for cluster sizes of 32K and above. Signed-off-by: Mark Fasheh <mfasheh@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com>
