I've just started testing the new branch. So far, it's working and
stable, but I'm testing it with rsync, local-to-GlusterFS and
GlusterFS-to-GlusterFS, which is failing to set the destination mtimes to
match the origin.
Also, I just tried a cp -a, which gives lots of complaints:
cp -a /usr cp0
cp: setting permissions for `cp0/share/linux-sound-base': No such file or
directory
cp: setting permissions for `cp0/share/bug/libmagic1': No such file or
directory
cp: setting permissions for `cp0/share/bug/apt': No such file or
directory
cp: setting permissions for `cp0/share/bug/grub': No such file or
directory
But, when I check, those directories do exist.
My test setup is a 4-node, 4-exports-per-node unified AFR, with AFRed
namespace. Each export is its own glusterfsd process. No performance
translators on the client, with io-threads (8) and posix-locks on the
servers. The client is using read-subvolume, where appropriate. I'm just
using standard FUSE 2.7.2 at the moment.
Thanks,

PS I really appreciate the focus on metadata performance in the latest
branch, and would be interested in any tips or patches to further boost
the metadata performance (high-speed file creation and lookups). I do
wonder if BDB would be effective for namespace, as someone asked in a
previous post.
