I was already pretty sure of it but since I've started graphing read and write speeds on our gluster volumes it's very clear that VMs basically don't read from disk, everything is in cache in ram. I sometimes litteraly have hours without any actual read operations on the volumes even with 20 VMs running on it. So I really don't mind the remote access there :) And writting won't benefit much in having data on the local drive since you have to write to all the bricks at once. I'll lose 1/3 of the bandwith for the machines running on those new proxmox nodes, but that's really not a bid deal, bandwith never was the problem, latency is, and this solution won't change latency at all. Or am I missing something key here ? -- Kevin Lemonnier PGP Fingerprint : 89A5 2283 04A0 E6E9 0111
