Good morning guys, we are setting up our new hosting based on gluster, after spending some months on trying out both ceph and gluster. We selected Ubuntu 14.04 as the base stack and are now evaluating, which version of gluster and which filesystem to choose. At the moment we are seeing 80 MiB/s with ext4, 93 MiB/s with xfs and roughly 89-91 MiB/s with xfs + dm-crypt. [0] All tests so far have been running with gluster 3.4.2-1ubuntu1 with a replicated volume. My question: What is the recommended gluster version for production (*) and what is the recommended filesystem? Our timelines is a roughly 3 years cycle for offering virtual machines on top of gluster, until we will exchange the whole stack again. Cheers, Nico [0] We tweet about our progress as @ungleich on https://twitter.com/ungleich if you are curious. (*) I saw some problems with 3.6.2 on the mailing list. -- New PGP key: 659B 0D91 E86E 7E24 FD15 69D0 C729 21A1 293F 2D24 _______________________________________________ Gluster-users mailing list Gluster-users@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users
