Hello I need hints about where to look at for poor readdir performance on NetBSD. The volume is 4x2 distributed/replicated (gluster volume info at the end of this message). Sometimes, the first listing of a large directroy is oddly long. For instance, ls on a directoty containing 96 entries took 39 seconds to complete. A second listing gets a decent time of 0.7s. profiling data included below shows a large time is spent in READDIRP for brick baril:/export/wd0e. Kernel trace shows that on the slow brick, all items in the listed directory get the following treatment: stat() lgetxattr(trusted.glusterfs.mdata) => does not exist llistxattr() That does not happen on other bricks, which just call get directory content, without further inspection. Any hint? I suspect it considers it has to self-heal something, but how is this decided? # gluster volume info Volume Name: gfs Type: Distributed-Replicate Volume ID: 45f4dc1b-344f-41a7-be82-c02e57a4b555
