----- Original Message ----- | Is there any other tuning I can use to make GFS2 faster in this | scenario? Does anyone use rsync in similar scenario, and how fast is | file list created? Hi Nikola, GFS2 is mostly self-tuning. However, we are making improvements all the time. The performance depends a lot on what version of GFS2 you are running. In general, newer is better. On the positive side: (1) There have been recent improvements to the DLM lock manager that speed things up somewhat. (2) I've got a set of patches that haven't been released yet that should help performance for bugzilla bug 650494. (3) I recently wrote a performance enhancement to the unlink code. All three of these patches have been posted to the public cluster-devel mailing list and are in different stages finding their way to the kernels. On the negative side: Some people have reported some more performance problems that we're currently investigating (haven't solved yet).
