We have fixed some issues which could potentially cause GlusterFS to hang. So, I ran the test again with 2.0.6rc4. This time, bonnie didn't hang. But the load average was fluctuating a lot. More precisely, it repeated the following pattern : - Reasonably high (around 0.45) - Constant slowing down (till 0.00) - Stale a few seconds at 0.00 - Rose around 0.45 again, and so on... The test took ages, literally. I stopped it after 24 hours and the rewrite part wasn't finished yet. Still nothing in logs except usual connection messages. Note : Even when bonnie hang, the volume was still accessible via other programs (ie shell). These tests are taking too long, so I think I will drop bonnie and do simpler tests (kernel compilations). I'll keep you posted.
