Has anyone that has set up microceph determined the overhead of the required multiple OSDs? The docs make it sound scary, but it's not clear if that's because people run it on a Pi with an sdcard for block storage or because someone once ran 18TB of OSDs in production that then fell over.

I do continue to be impressed/ over-awed by how effectively scared the Ceph docs are about just how many system resources you need. To run a mid tier not that fast storage cluster. Bother.

Impressive as hell software and I am so glad to have it. But man! The insistence on mountains of ram per TB, on massive IO is intimidating.
