Common Performance Pitfalls of Modern Storage I/O
https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1rdnsse/common_performance_pitfalls_of_modern_storage_io/

<!-- SC_OFF -->Whether you’re optimizing ScyllaDB, building your own database system, or simply trying to understand why your storage isn’t delivering the advertised performance, understanding these three interconnected layers – disk, filesystem, and application – is essential. Each layer has its own assumptions of what constitutes an optimal request. When these expectations misalign, the consequences cascade down, amplifying latency and degrading throughput. This post presents a set of delicate pitfalls we’ve encountered, organized by layer. Each includes concrete examples from production investigations as well as actionable mitigation strategies. <!-- SC_ON --> submitted by /u/swdevtest (https://www.reddit.com/user/swdevtest)
