 `Documenting Ceph`_
 
+Performance enhancements must come with test data and detailed
+explanations.
+
+Code cleanup is appreciated along with a patch that fixes a bug or
+implements a feature. Except on rare occasions, code cleanup that only
+involve coding style or whitespace modifications are discouraged,
+primarily because they cause problems when rebasing and backporting.
