Re: file metadata operations performance - gluster 4.1

One of the observation we had with git clone like work load was, nl-cache (negative-lookup cache), helps here.

Try 'gluster volume set $volume-name nl-cache enable'.

Also sharing the 'profile info' during this performance observations also helps us to narrow down the situation.

Hello,

did anyone ever managed to achieve reasonable waiting time while performing metadata intensive operations such as git clone, untar etc...? Is this possible workload or will never be in scope for glusterfs?

I'd like to know, if possible, what would be the options that affect such volume performances.
Albeit i managed to achieve decent git status/git grep operations, 3 and 30 secs, the git clone and untarring a file from/to the same share take ages. for a git repo of aprox 6GB.

I'm running a test environment with 3 way replica 128GB RAM and 24 cores are  2.40GHz, one internal SSD dedicated to the volume brick and 10Gb network

The options set so far that affects volume performances are:
 48 performance.readdir-ahead: on                  
 49 features.cache-invalidation-timeout: 600 
 50 features.cache-invalidation: on  
 51 performance.md-cache-timeout: 600 
 52 performance.stat-prefetch: on  
 53 performance.cache-invalidation: on  
 54 performance.parallel-readdir: on    
 55 network.inode-lru-limit: 900000    
 56 performance.io-thread-count: 32   
 57 performance.cache-size: 10GB
