[LU-12321] Unlink speed needs to be improved in DoM configuration

• Type: Bug
• Resolution: Fixed
• Priority: Major
• Fix Version/s: Lustre 2.14.0
• Affects Version/s: Lustre 2.13.0
• Severity: 3
• Assignee: Mikhail Pershin
• Reporter: Shuichi Ihara

Description

In DoM configuration, unlink speed is much slower (~35%) than Non-DOM configuration.
Here is test resutls with DNE2 with/without DoM.
Number of MDT and OST are four each. So, in theory, unlink speed in DoM configuration can be same as non-DOM configuration or even faster.
Here is test resutls.

DNE2(4xMDS/4MDT) without DOM, 4 x OSS(4xOST) and 32 clients
