Both rebalance and self-healing are actually run in lower priority by default. You can disable this "low priority" by:
# gluster volume set <name> performance.enable-least-priority off

Hi,
I was asked today about the relative priority of rebalance.
>From what I understand, gluster does not perform any rate-limiting on rebalance or even geo-rep. Is this the case?
Also, assuming that we don't rate-limit rebalance, can you confirm whether rebalance fops are lower priority than client I/O and if there are any mechanisms to influence the priority of the rebalance. Again from what I can see this isn't possible.
Cheers,
