I don't have the answer to your questions, but I have a few questions of my own that may play a part in this. The read/write performance you need - is this aggregate performance across many clients, or is this just one or two clients with high individual requirements for storage I/O? If your setup is many clients with maybe 10MB/s requirement, and all accessing separate files which might be on different server groups, that's easier to cope with than perhaps a small number of clients that each require several hundred MB/s speeds. -- Cheers, Kingsley. _______________________________________________ Gluster-users mailing list Gluster-users@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users
