nfs-ganesha is a much more feature rich nfs server that uses libgfapi to access the gluster volume in userspace. This userspace solution avoids the context switches like the native gluster nfs does, but adds support for pnfs/nfsv4 and udp.

From the development standpoint, they have a full set of developers working only on and focused only on their nfs server whereas the gluster version was implemented as a stop-gap to provide a solution where the kernel nfs re-share was failing.

I think nfs-ganesha is a better solution. There is integration work being done in glusterfs to make its use seamless, so I suspect that's the long-term nfs solution that will eventually replace gluster's native nfs.
