Are you duplicating the traffic over the same physical network by relaying through the VM, rather than writing directly to network storage, thereby halving the write performance? Assuming you're on a GigE network, are all the network devices running in full duplex? Just some guesses based on the fact that the throughput is almost exactly half. *Steve Dainard * IT Infrastructure Manager Miovision <http://miovision.com/> | *Rethink Traffic* 519-513-2407 ex.250 877-646-8476 (toll-free) *Blog <http://miovision.com/blog> | **LinkedIn<https://www.linkedin.com/company/miovision-technologies> | Twitter <https://twitter.com/miovision> | Facebook<https://www.facebook.com/miovision> * ------------------------------ Miovision Technologies Inc. | 148 Manitou Drive, Suite 101, Kitchener, ON, Canada | N2C 1L3 This e-mail may contain information that is privileged or confidential.

Hello,
I'm testing oVirt 3.3 with GlusterFS libgfapi back-end. I'm using a node for engine and one for VDSM. From the VMs I'm mounting a second GlusterFS volume on a third storage server.
I'm experiencing very bad transfer rates (38MB/s) writing from a client to a VM on the mounted GlusterFS. On the other hand, from the VM itself I can move a big file from the root vda (libgfapi) to the mounted GlusterFS at 70MB/s.
I can't really figure out where the bottleneck could be. I'm using only the default ovirtmgmt network.
Thank you for your help, any hint will be appreciated.
