Re: Tiered volume performance degrades badly after a volume stop/start or system restart.

Tested it in two different environments lately with exactly same results.
Was trying to get better read performance from local mounts with
hundreds of thousands maildir email files by using SSD,
   hoping that .gluster file stat read will improve which does migrate
to hot tire.
After seeing what you described for 24 hours and confirming all move
around on the tires is done - killed it.
Here are my volume settings - maybe will be useful to spot conflicting ones.
