    Description

      In our application, during the performance testing on lustre 2.4.2 we got times of reading and writing to test I/O operations with a file of almost 400GB.
      Running this application a lot of times, consecutively, we see that in write operations, I/O time remain on same range, but in read operations there are a huge difference of time. As you can see below:

      Write time [sec]:
      325.77
      318.80
      325.44
      458.54
      316.89
      327.75
      344.90
      340.34
      383.57
      316.35

      Read time [sec]:
      570.48
      601.11
      447.14
      406.39
      480.44
      5824.40
      299.40
      293.54
      1049.93
      4190.47

      We ran on the single client with 1 process and tested on same infrastructure (hardware and network).
      Could you explain why is reading time so distorted? What kind of problem might be occurring?
