MetaData Performance Project

This is a joint project that the Lustre team, the ORNL LCE, and Cray created in early spring of 2009. The project has the following primary goals:

  • Understand current Lustre 1.6, 1.8, and 2.0 branch metadata performance characteristics
  • Ensure the Lustre 1.6 branch performs as well as previous Lustre branches with respect to metadata
  • Double the current average performance of Lustre 1.8 branch metadata performance
  • Though introduction of clustered metadata early exposure in Lustre 2.0 and until the general release of CMD, ensure that Lustre metadata scales and performs as well as, or better than, GPFS metadata scaling

The project leader is Nirant Puntambekar.

You can track the progress of this project through the project dashboard that Nirant updates bi-weekly.

Also, baseline metadata performance tests being done by the Lustre team are soon to be published on this page.
