[ovirt-users] Performance issue for GlusterFS as the block storage for VMs

[Yue, Cong]

Hi

I have one question about whether GlusterFS is the suitable solution to be used as the block storage for VMs.
The failure tolerant and scalability is good for GlusterFS, but in my test, it seems the iops is pretty bad. In some blog, it said, it is even with worse performance than normal NFS.
Should I use iscsi+drbd for the block storage for VMs.
Can somebody give some advice for this?

Thanks,
Cong
