So I've just finished tagging 3.7.10 in the repository. I've done basic usability, upgrade and performance tests with fuse clients. I tested I/O using dbench, iozone and perf-test[1], and it happened without issues. I performed a rolling upgrade from 3.7.9 with I/O happening, and was able to cleanly upgrade without I/O stopping. I used perf-test script to measure performance changes between 3.7.9 and 3.7.10. I did the test on a 2x2 replicated volume. The storage pool was created using VMs, so please don't read too much into them. For 3.7.9, emptyfiles_create 515.51 emptyfiles_delete 255.93 smallfiles_create 1435.28 smallfiles_rewrite 1907.45 smallfiles_read 315.60 smallfiles_reread 185.74 smallfiles_delete 363.33 largefile_create 68.90 largefile_rewrite 90.86 largefile_read 6.90 largefile_reread 0.21 largefile_delete 0.43 directory_crawl_create 637.64 directory_crawl 19.85 directory_recrawl 23.11 metadata_modify 1220.35 directory_crawl_delete 259.46 For 3.7.10, emptyfiles_create 569.40 emptyfiles_delete 312.65 smallfiles_create 1297.20 smallfiles_rewrite 1418.71 smallfiles_read 327.18 smallfiles_reread 163.53 smallfiles_delete 384.45 largefile_create 10.23 largefile_rewrite 7.46 largefile_read 5.33 largefile_reread 0.23 largefile_delete 1.65 directory_crawl_create 612.95 directory_crawl 28.92 directory_recrawl 20.64 metadata_modify 1091.86 directory_crawl_delete 231.43 Smallfile/largefile creates and rewrites, and metadata modify seem to have improved significantly. The changes are significant enough that I hope they are actual improvements rather than changes due to VM resource availability. I'd love it if someone could do the test on actual physical hardware. I hope to announce the release early next week, hopefully on Monday, once the packages have been built. Maintainers may now restart merging changes on the release-3.7 branch.
