3) sanlock configured (this is evil!)

Just out of curiosity, can you please tell more why it is evil? I just found it out after your first post and want to know if there's any gotchas :)

Though it doesn't corrupt data, the I/O performance is < 1% of my
hardwares capability. Hopefully work on buffering and other tuning
will fix this ? Or maybe the work mentioned getting qemu talking
directly to gluster will fix this?

Have you tried setting performance.client-io-threads on if it makes any difference?

As a side note I have to say that I have seen similar problems with RAID-5 systems even when using them as non-replicated iSCSI target. In my experience it's definetly not good for hosting VM images.
