Hey guys,
I keep seeing different recommendations for the best shard sizes for VM images, from 64MB to 512MB.
What's the benefit of smaller v larger shards?
I'm guessing smaller shards are quicker to heal, but larger shards will provide better sequential I/O for single clients? Anything else?
I also usually see "cluster.data-self-heal-
algorithm: full" is generally recommended in these cases. Why not "diff"? Is it simply to reduce CPU load when there's plenty of excess network capacity?
