I need high random read and write iops in use small files , it means high 4k random read and write iops,not big files read and write high speed.
I want to find a way use more pc servers ,more harddisks , more nics to improve performance.
I think there is many way to choose :
raid or no raid?
Is more stripe more performance ?
How to balance data safe and performance ?
I test 2 weeks, choose diffenrent servers ,stripe group , raid and no raid ...
be honest , I have not find a goog way , i get stuck ,can you offer me some suggestions ? tks

i check my record ,it is correct , I can test it again if i have time.

That's not clear , i use default cmd ,i don't know how gulster control it.

Ok, i test gid-timeout=1 thks
