The size of write requests with data=journal and data=ordered,nodelalloc are 4k mostly. If we observe the average Q2Q in btt results, which means time interval between requests, we have /journal 0.00081 /order_nodelalloc 0.00031 It seems to be the reason of performance degradation. Is any one know why the time interval of requests is significantly longer with data=journal? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug.
