Hi Krutika,
Thanks for your input. I have yet to run any benchmarks, but I'll do
that once I have a bit more time to work on this.
I've tweaked the options as you suggest, but that doesn't seem to have
made an appreciable difference. I admit that without benchmarks it's a
bit like sticking your finger in the air, though. Do I need to restart
my bricks and/or remount the volumes for these to take effect?
I'm actually running GlusterFS 3.10.2-1. This is all coming from the
CentOS Storage SIG's centos-release-gluster310 repository.
Thanks again.
