Large latency with bcache for Ceph OSD

Hi guys,

I am testing ceph with bcache, I found some I/O with O_SYNC writeback to 
HDD, which caused large latency on HDD, I trace the I/O with iosnoop:

./iosnoop  -Q -ts -d '8,192

Tracing block I/O for 1 seconds (buffered)...

I'm confused why write with O_SYNC must writeback on the backend storage 
device?  And when I used bcache for a time,

the latency increased a lot.(The SSD is not very busy), There's some 
best practices on configuration?
