Our setup:
cluster.shd-max-threads: 2
cluster.shd-wait-qlength: 10000

Well, maybe our setup with 3 servers and 4 disks=bricks == 12 bricks,
resulting in a distributed-replicate volume (all /dev/sd{a,b,c,d}
identical) , isn't optimal? And it would be better to create a
replicate 3 volume with only 1 (big) brick per server (with 4 disks:
either a logical volume or sw/hw raid)?

But it would be interesting to know if a replicate volume is healing
faster than a distributed-replicate volume - even if there was only 1
faulty brick.


We don't have any data point to agree to this, but it may be true. Specially, as the crawling when DHT (ie, distribute) is involved can get little slower, which means, the healing would get slower too.

We are trying to experiment few performance enhancement patches (like https://review.gluster.org/20636), would be great to see how things work with newer base. Will keep the list updated about performance numbers once we have some more data on them.
