Thanks, it seems you're right. Running local replica 3 volume on 3x1Gb

So, 32-core server-class system with a lot of RAM can't perform much
faster for an
individual I/O client - it just scales better if there are a lot of
clients, right?

Yes, it should scale with additional clients and bricks.

As a side note, this high-cpu, (relatively) low-perf result was the reason why I abandoned the idea to use a 3-way Gluster as backing store for hyperconverged KVM setup (with VMs running on the same Gluster host): while adequate for "normal" VMs, it would not fit the bill for high performance guest.

Increasing the number of bricks/clients would ameliorate the situation, but we are suddenly in the "rack full of gluster server" setup (which is not compatible with my customers requests).

If anyone has some suggestions, I am all ears!
Regards.
