glusterfs storage domain configuration GUI got ""Optimize for virt. store"
option which have to be enabled when configuring for virt store.

Ref#http://www.ovirt.org/Features/GlusterFS_Storage_Domain

If the configuration is manual,  you need to set the group to 'virt' as
shown below

#gluster volume set VOLNAME group virt

This will enable below options on gluster volume :

quick-read=off
read-ahead=off
io-cache=off
stat-prefetch=off
eager-lock=enable
remote-dio=on


Can you please make sure group has set properly ?

Also, invoke  "dd" with oflag=direct option and check whether it helps ..
