High CPU/IOWAIT in MongoDB 3.2.9

    • Type: Icon: Bug Bug

      After upgrading a replica set to 3.2.9, I am seeing:

      • increased CPU usage on the two hosts that have SSD's
      • increased CPU and IOWAIT on the host that has regular HDDs (in software RAID1, if it makes any difference)

      The workload hasn't changed before/after the upgrade (about 40-60 inserts / 1-2 queries / 0 updates / 0 deletes – per second)

      The configuration also hasn't changed, I've been running WiredTiger before as well.

      The storage configuration is configured as follows:

      storage:
        dbPath: /var/lib/mongodb
        directoryPerDB: true
        journal:
          enabled: true
        engine: "wiredTiger"
        wiredTiger:
              engineConfig: 
                  journalCompressor: zlib
              collectionConfig: 
                  blockCompressor: zlib 
              indexConfig:
                  prefixCompression: true
      

      I've attached diagnostic.data as requested and some munin charts that show the difference before/after.

      Seemingly related issues:

      Let me know if there's anything else I can do to help.
