Hello, I am trying to get glusterfs ( 3.2.6, server ) to work on MacOSX ( Lion - I think , darwin kernel 11.3 ). So far I've been able to make it compile with a few patches and --disable-fuse-client. I want to create a volume on a MacMini that will be a replica of another volume stored on a linux server in a different location. The volume stored on the MacMini would also have to be mounted on the macmini. Since the fuse client is broken because it's built to use macfuse and that doesn't work anymore on the latest MacOSX I want to mount the volume over nfs and I've been able to do that ( with a small patch to the xdr code ) but it's really really slow. It's so slow that mounting the volume through a remote node is a lot faster. Also mounting the same volume on a remote node is fast so the problem is definitely in the nfs server on the MacOSX. I did a strace ( dtruss ) on it and it seems like it's doing a lot of polling. Could this be the cause of the slowness ? If anyone wants to try this you can fetch it from https://github.com/mihaisecasiu/glusterfs/tree/release-3.2 Thanks
