Hello All, I am new to gluster and evaluating it for my production environment. After reading some blogs and googling I learned that NFS mount at clients give better read performance for small files and the glusterfs/FUSE mount gives better for large write operations. Now my questions are 1) What do we mean by small files? 1KB/1MB/1GB? 2) If I am using NFS mount at the client I am most likely loosing the high availability feature of gluster. unlike fuse mount where if primary goes down I don't need to worry about availability. Basically my production environment will mostly have read operations of files ranging from 400KB to 5MB and they will be concurrently read by different threads.
