[ovirt-users] Re: Speed Issues

Hey Jayme, thanks for replying; sorry for the delay. If I am understanding this right, there is no real official way to enable libgfapi. If you somehow manage to get it running then you will lose HA capabilities, which is something we like on our production servers. The most recent post I could find on the matter (https://www.mail-archive.com/users@ovirt.org/msg59664.html) read like its worth a try for hobyyists, but for production servers I do am a little bit scared. Do you maybe have any document or other source that does work with 4.3.x versions and inspires confidence? :-) -Chris On 24/03/2020 19:49, Jayme wrote: > I strongly believe that FUSE mount is the real reason for poor > performance in HCI and these minor gluster and other tweaks won't > satisfy most seeking i/o performance.
