Hi, As a part of my initial contribution to the organization, I have done the following:
1. Installed gluster on 2 nodes on digitalocean 2. Specs of the nodes: 2 GB Memory / 40 GB Disk / NYC2 - Ubuntu 16.04.1 x64 3. Set up a volume and mounted it 4. Set up a client machine, and ran the benchmark tests from there only. After the setup of the nodes and the client machine, I ran the benchmark tests from [1]. I found the following issues while creating the benchmark: - there were no instructions on the latest ppa for gluster, so I had to search on launchpad for Ubuntu - mount_point is a required variable which is not accepted properly - no instructions on setting up IOZone. - IOZone configuration file isn't generated properly for IOZone3. - smallfile is configured on all clients, however the check for smallfile is done on localhost, so even though it's installed it installs it everytime. - error handling is weak on tests - the mounted volume name is hard coded for smallfile I would like to improve the benchmark script. Also, could I make a pull request for the same? On fixing the errors and after some research I was able to generate the following results for the benchmark: Sequential Writes 64 record size: 549,826 kBps Sequential Reads 64 record size: 919,270 kBps Random Writes 64 record size: 278,564 kBps Random Reads 64 record size: 81,914 KBps Smallfile Creates 64 file size: 236 files/sec Smallfile Reads 64 file size: 627 files/sec Smallfile ls -l 64 file size: 10693 files/sec [1] https://github.com/gluster/gbench/tree/master/bench-tests/bt-0000-0001 Cheers, Soumya.
