A really interesting setup for people who want to get rid of NFS... In theory the minimum time (caused by a FE network) should be below 23s for read and write or maybe 46s for replicate write case. I know you have GBit ethernet, but your disks won't cope with that anyway, so one would be content with a factor 2 in real life. Nevertheless your test really shows that NFS is not that bad. A local-disk FUSE fs would be an interesting comparison, too. -- Regards, Stephan
