I tried more things to figure out the issue. Like upgrading NFS-ganesha to the latest version(as the earlier version had some bug regarding crashing), that helped a bit.
But still again the ls -ls or rm -rf files were hanging but not much as earlier. So upgrade of NFS ganesha to stable version did help help a bit.
I did strace again, looks like its pausing/hanging at "lstat" I had to [crtl+c] to get the exact hang/pausing line.

lstat("/mnt/gluster/rand.24.0", ^C
NOTE: I am running fio to generate some write operation & hangs are seen when issuing ls during write operation.
Next thing, I might try is to use NFS mount rather than Glustefs fuse to see if its related to fuse client.

To be more precious the hang is clearly seen when there is some IO(write) to the mount point. Even rm -rf takes time to clear the files.
Below, time command showing the delay. Typically it should take less then a second, but glusterfs take more than 5seconds just to list 32x 2GB files.

I did strace & its waiting on IO.

The reason I alluded to a physical setup was to remove the variables that can affect performance in a virtual setup. The behavior is not usual for the scale of deployment that you mention. You could use strace in conjunction with gluster volume profile to determine where the latency is stemming from.

Regardless of what type of volume I create when listing files under directory using ls command the GlusterFS mount hangs pauses for few seconds. This is same if there're 2-5 19gb file each or 2gb file each. There are less than 10 files under the GlusterFS mount.
