Deletion studies through RDR | Requirements from ATLAS VO (Alessandra): 11266 deletions/h of 3GiB files. We are mean seeing deletion times for 3GiB files of 0.5 - 4 seconds, however there are some large outliers. (Taken from 10 deletions of 3GiB batches, 500 files in each batch).  Current deletion times to delete a batch of 500 3GiB files average around 30s (with some large outliers, however). Extrapolating from the average would suggest a bulk deletion rate of 60,000 files per hour is achievable within RAL, using the CERN deletion timing program. It would be instructive to find test whether the deletion mechanism that ATLAS will use during DC24 (FTS?) is able to achieve acceptable deletion rates. An example of the variation in range of deletion times (plots from 07:30 this morning and 11:40):   Now testing deletion times with different concurrency levels (20 and 40). First results are that using 40 results in a lower overall deletion time, hence a higher deletion rate. To delete 500, 3 GiB files takes 14s with 40 threads, against 18s with 20 threads. However, mean and median times are slightly larger with 40 threads (1.1s for both median and mean, against 0.6 and 0.7 for 20 threads). The measurements with 20 and 40 threads were taken one after the other (within five minutes), so I don’t think that ECHO would have been performing much differently within that time range. Will run multiple tests at varying levels of concurrency to get more reliable stats, depending on what I find from the following: As the DC24 deletions involve Rucio invoking FTS, I’m started running bulk deletions with RAL FTS to observe how many deletion jobs run at any time. I’m discussing with Alessandra and Mihai what level of concurrency we might expect from CERN FTS during DC24. | ||||||||||
