I've done some benchmarking for various gluster configurations. What I found out is that write-back(WB) translator in client side - as suggested in documentation - (almost)always turned out to be a huge performance killer. From what I understand WB should "pack" a lot of small writes to fewer big ones. I cant see that happening in my scenario. I.e. creating a lot of small files (1kB in size) an self-healing takes aprox. 10 times longer than without this translator. Can someone explain this please? There is also an "option disable-for-first-nbytes" for this translator which does not seem to be documented. Thanks, m
