I've expanded specification of two proposals for improving small-file performance as new feature pages, referenced at the bottom of this list (not in priority order I hope?). Could we possibly review these proposals at a gluster.org meeting this month? http://www.gluster.org/community/documentation/index.php/Features#Proposed_Features.2FIdeas
Thanks for this. Let us go through these ideas sometime next week. Me/Jeff do intend to setup a dedicated meeting for performance improvements sometime then.
new feature pages under this page are: http://www.gluster.org/community/documentation/index.php/Features/stat-xattr-cache - proposed enhancement to POSIX translator for small-file performance http://www.gluster.org/community/documentation/index.php/Features/composite-operations - changes to reduce round trips for small-file performance Specifically, the stat-xattr-cache proposal does not require Gluster 4.0 - it could be implemented today. These pages are referenced by Features/Planning40 page and also by the Features/Feature_Smallfile_Perf page. comments and feedback are appreciated. There have been other related proposals from Rudra Siva concerning round-trip reduction in http://supercolony.gluster.org/pipermail/gluster-devel/2014-November/042741.html .
+1 to implement whatever we can today in 3.7. I envision performance improvements across the board as being one of the release themes for GlusterFS 3.7.
