It is important to specify which kind of latency percentile this is. Checking on a customer's cluster (made from 336 SATA SSDs in 15 servers, so not the best one in the world):
50th percentile = 1.75 ms
90th percentile = 3.15 ms
99th percentile = 9.54 ms
That's with 700 MB/s of reads and 200 MB/s of writes, or approximately 7000 reads IOPS and 9000 writes IOPS.
- louwrentius 3y agoThese numbers may be good enough for your use case but from what’s possible with SSDs these numbers aren’t great. Please note, I mean well. Still a cool setup. I’d like to see much more latency consistency and 99th even sub ms. Might want to set a latency target with fio and see what kind of load is possible until 99 hits 1ms. However, I can say all of this but it’s all about context and depending on workload your figures may be totally fine.
