I have been playing around with Gluster on and off for the last 6 years or so. Most of the things that have been keeping me from using it have been related to latency. In the past I have been using 10 gig infiniband or 10 gig ethernet, recently the price of 40 gig ethernet has fallen quite a bit with guys like Arista. My question is, is this worth it at all for something like Gluster? The port to port latency looks impressive at under 4 microseconds, but I don't yet know what total system to system latency would look like assuming QSPF+ copper cables and linux stack. -- ><> Nathan Stratton Founder, CTO Exario Networks, Inc. nathan at robotics.net nathan at exarionetworks.com http://www.robotics.net http://www.exarionetworks.com/ Building the WebRTC solutions today that your customers will demand tomorrow. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
