I am not sure that it is ok to use any caching (at least ovirt doesn't uses) . Have you set the 'virt' group of settings ? They seem to be optimal , but keep in mind that if you enable them -> you will enable sharding which cannot be 'disabled' afterwards. The fact that it works on C7 is strange, with wifh version of gluster did you test.
