Hi Gerald, Think you have an unusual setup there. Generally Gluster would be used to _either_ provide Gluster _or_ NFS shares from 10.1.4.181 and 10.1.40.2. So you'd have (1) and (3) in a normal setup, no (2). Also, I don't believe you can get aggregate speeds out of it, since each replica needs to receive everything, and it's synchronous. So if your write goes to .181, then .181 has to write to .2 before the operation is done, and it just has a single connection to .2, not an aggregate one. Best, Whit
