The moment we get alerts saying the file system has hit 90%, we get a flood of support tickets about performance. It happens to a lesser degree on standard CentOS NAS units running XFS we have around the place. But again, I see the same sort of thing on any file system (vendor supplied, self-built, OS and FS agnostic). And yes, it's measurable (Munin graphs show it off nicely). -Dan _______________________________________________ Gluster-users mailing list Gluster-users@xxxxxxxxxxx http://supercolony.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users
