    Description

      We have been noticing decreased performance in any stat-intense operation on lustre 2.10.[0,2] when compared to 2.7. The difference is more significant when testing on HDDs than when testing on SSDs, but is visible for us on both. Between runs I am dropping cache on the client, mds, and oss via "echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches"

      For example, in a single directory containing 100000 files:

       Client Version 2.10.2 2.10.2 2.7 2.7
      Server Version 2.10.2  2.7 2.10.2 2.7
       ls -l time (seconds) 54 5 53 6
      du -s time (seconds) 150 22 150 29

      We are running 2.10 server on centos7 and 2.7 on rhel6.6.
