Hello! I've got problem with performance on two node stripe configuration. I'm testing different configurations with script: #!/bin/bash x=katalog for y in a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z ; do echo " $y" for z in a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z ; do echo " $z" mkdir -p $x/$x$y/$x$y$z for ((i=0;i<=32;i++)) ; do dd if=/dev/zero of=$x/$x$y/$x$y$z/$i bs=1k count=1 > /dev/null 2>&1 done sync done done On one node configuration: volume posix type storage/posix option directory /home/export end-volume volume brick type features/posix-locks subvolumes posix end-volume volume server type protocol/server option transport-type tcp/server subvolumes brick option auth.ip.brick.allow * end-volume time of running is about 1m2.149s. Find over directory last for about 45s and removing it - 25s. When I configure client on one node to use stripe: volume localhost1 type protocol/client option transport-type tcp/client option remote-host 127.0.0.1 option remote-subvolume brick end-volume volume remote1 type protocol/client option transport-type tcp/client option remote-host 10.240.0.12 option remote-subvolume brick end-volume volume stripe type cluster/stripe option block-size *:128kB subvolumes localhost1 remote1 end-volume I'm getting time of create about 2 minutes, find last for 2m10s and removing directory - 40s. Where is problem? Connection to remote1 can speed up to 600Mbps over scp. I'm using glusterfs 1.3.12 and native kernel fuse (kerel version 2.6.27.2). Regards. -- rash at konto pl
