LVM + EXT4 metadata pool recommended size

You may perform this test with the benchmark tool:

Upcoming storage node improvements including benchmark tool

Past week several developers looked into storage node performance. We started the week with a benchmark tool that creates all the files a storage node would do at maximum speed. How fast can we write pieces to spinning disks? We know there are some low hanging fruites that would give us better storage node performance. How big is the performance gain? Which of the possible code changes gives us the biggest improvement? Is it worth the risk? So here I am showing you some early results of that wor…

Also I recently found another one benchmark:

How do you solve slow file deletion on ext4?

We also got a very weird result with test of the filewalker and GC on BTRFS and ext4. We have a benchmark tool for the filewalkers and the garbage collector: storj/cmd/tools/filewalker-benchmark at main · storj/storj · GitHub git clone https://github.com/storj/storj.git cd /mnt/x go run ~/storj/cmd/tools/filewalker-benchmark

exactly for the filewalker
