Hello, I imagine you get this kind of messages all the time, but just in case: I have setup with 2 storage servers with debian package of gluster - version 3.1.0 They are connected by dedicated 1 gigabit ethernet cards. I've set up simple replicated storage with 2 replicas and transport over TCP (just followed the how to on the wiki with obvious changes). Here goes my problem: If I try to copy small files (i.e. extract kernel source) I get a horrible results: praha-storage2:/mnt/test# time tar xf linux-2.6.26.8.tar.bz2 real 15m19.825s user 0m13.989s sys 0m5.152s likewise when rsyncing OpenVZ VPSes - I just can't get over 2MB/s in syncing. I've monitored all resources - CPU load, network, disk I/O - they are all used up to 0.00000nothing %. Network latency is about 0.11 ms all the time. Is this normal, or am I doing something wrong? Please help. I am frustrated :( -- S pozdravem / Best Regards Pavel ?najdr +420 720 107 791 http://vpsfree.cz
