[ovirt-users] Re: [Gluster-users] Gluster 5.5 slower than 3.12.15

Strahil, With some basic testing, we are noticing the similar behavior too. One of the issue we identified was increased n/w usage in 5.x series (being addressed by https://review.gluster.org/#/c/glusterfs/+/22404/), and there are few other features which write extended attributes which caused some delay. We are in the process of publishing some numbers with release-3.12.x, release-5 and release-6 comparison soon. With some numbers we are already seeing release-6 currently is giving really good performance in many configurations, specially for 1x3 replicate volume type. While we continue to identify and fix issues in 5.x series, one of the request is to validate release-6.x (6.0 or 6.1 which would happen on April 10th), so you can see the difference in your workload.
