Indeed - we're usin gluster to backend hosted - so we know it has some
issues with small writes. Our reason for using it is mostly for a shared,
reliable fs - specifically so we can use the live migration features of
openstack
- If this stuff is on a LAN that is slow/bogged down/not operating at
Full Pipe Speedz then that could cause suckage (depending on ... things?? just recalling
vague things in my brain... could be
worth a shot.)
The lan is completely free and clear of anything other than the
cloud-noise.
Anyway, I'm forwarding on to the gluster folks (john mark, eco,
jeff, kaleb) in the hopes they might be able to help fine-tune things; I know that john
mark has been curious about how things are
going anyhow.
Thanks - I had planned on pinging jeff today but you beat me to it.
