Please let me know if > there are new commits that may help. There have been new commits which should (theoretically atleast) improve read performance while read-ahead loaded in the client. Also you should try loading booster on the server side so that I/O happens from client's address space directly to the server (bypassing kernel/fuse/glusterfs client). The configuration is a bit tricky and yet to be documented, but our tests so far have shown good results so far. avati Thanks in advance, > -- > cc > > > _______________________________________________ > Gluster-devel mailing list > Gluster-devel@xxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-devel > -- It always takes longer than you expect, even when you take into account Hofstadter's Law. -- Hofstadter's Law
