It might not be a very fruitful kind of optimization.  Repeating an
experiment someone else had done a while ago, I just ran an experiment to
compare a normal client volfile vs. one with a *hundred* extra do-nothing
translators added.  There was no statistically significant difference,
even on a fairly capable SSD-equipped system.  I/O latency variation and
other general measurement noise still far outweigh the cost of a few extra
function calls to invoke translators that aren't doing any I/O themselves.

The new graph should show up in the logs.  Also, you can always use "gluster
system getspec xxx" to get the current client volfile for any volume xxx.
