We're using GlusterFS in a replicated brick setup with 2 bricks with sharding turned on (shardsize 128MB).
There is something funny going on as we can see that if we copy large VM files to the volume we can end up with files that are a bit larger than the source files DEPENDING on the speed with which we copied the files - e.g.:It seems that if NN is <= 25 (i.e. 25 MB/s) the size of SOURCE and TARGET will be the same.
If we crank NN to, say, 50 we sometimes risk that a 25G file ends up having a slightly larger size, e.g. 26844413952 or 26844233728 - larger than the expected 26843545600.
Unfortunately this is not an illusion ! If we dd the files out of Gluster we will receive the amount of data that 'ls' showed us.

In the brick directory (incl .shard directory) we have the expected amount of shards for a 25G files (200) with size precisely equal to 128MB - but there is an additional 0 size shard file created.
Has anyone else seen a phenomenon like this ?
Thanx,
Claus.
