Small files

Hi,

To what extent, is Gluster a good choice for the "many small files scenario", as opposed to HDFS? Last I checked, hdfs would consume humongous memory resources if the cluster has many small files, given its architecture. There are some hackish solutions on top HDFS for the case of many small files rather than huge files, but it would be nice to find a file system that matches that scenario well as is. So I wonder how would Gluster do when files are typically small.

Thanks!
