also i think you should be able to get better performance if you
use vfs_glusterfs [1]. From what I understand it's similar to
samba what nfs-ganesha does for nfs, it uses the libgfapi directly
rather than sharing a fuse-mount
[1]
https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/current/man-html/vfs_glusterfs.8.html
on my test machine i did this: (centos 7)
first we need to install samba-vfs-glusterfs and of
course the samba server which comes as a dependency:
yum install samba-vfs-glusterfs
gluster volume set vol1 server.allow-insecure on
now stop and start the gluster volume, this will auto-create a
(non-working, how funny is that) configuration in /etc/samba/smb.conf
gluster volume stop vol1
gluster volume start vol1
now edit /etc/samba/smb.conf and add kernel
share modes = no and also guest ok=yes to
the newly created [gluster-vol1] section so that it
finally looks about like this:
[gluster-vol1]
comment = For samba share of volume vol1
vfs objects = glusterfs
glusterfs:volume = vol1
glusterfs:logfile = /var/log/samba/glusterfs-vol1.%M.log
glusterfs:loglevel = 7
path = /
read _only_ = no
guest ok = yes
kernel share modes = no
now restart samba
systemctl restart smb
and now you should be able to mount the samba share
mount.cifs -o guest //gluster1/gluster-vol1 /mnt/cifs

Hello Anoop,
it is a known issue that Gluster+Samba has a poor
performance especially for small files.
May this manual can give you more inspiration how to
setup your Gluster and Samba environment.

This particular group command is only available from v6.0
(as of now).
