I've setup an eight node server stripe using gluster 1.4.0pre5 using the stripe example from the wiki. Each of these eight nodes has a 100Mbit ethernet card and a single hard disk. I've connected them all together using a gigabit switch and I have a gigabit workstation connected, with gluster mounted and running fine. However, when i try to do a dd test to the disk "dd if=/dev/zero of=test1 bs=1024k count=1000", I'm only seeing 10MB/sec over the transfer. I would suspect the data to stripe evenly across all the disks/nodes, effectively giving me at least over 50MB/sec in combined throughput. I'm I confused on what the stripe translator does, or did I do something wrong? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
