AFAIK gluster store each shard on a single directory.
With huge files this could lead to millions of small shard file in the same directory that certainly lead to a performance issue.
Why not moving each shard in a dedicated directory and may be also with a defined nested structure? In example, from this:
/.shard/d218cd1c-4bd9-40d7-9810-86b3f7932509.1
To something like this:
/.shard/d/d2/d218cd1c-4bd9-40d7-9810-86b3f7932509/d218cd1c-4bd9-40d7-9810-86b3f7932509.1
