Is it possible to write custom transport layers for gluster?, data transfer, not the management protocols. Pointers to the existing code and/or docs :) would be helpful


I'd like to experiment with broadcast udp to see if its feasible in local networks.

Another thing to consider here is ordering of messages (sent over transport). If Broadcast udp doesn't support ordering of messages (I know udp doesn't, assuming broadcast udp doesn't too, but I may be wrong). If it doesn't, you've to build ordering logic on top of it. If transport layer doesn't provide ordering, we cannot reason about consistency of data stored on filesystem.
 
It would be amazing if we could write at 1GB speeds simultaneously to all nodes.


Alternatively let me know if this has been tried and discarded as a bad idea ...

thanks,
