Hi,

I'm doing a lot of small writes to distributed/replicated Gluster volume. The 
performance I'm getting is not acceptable. Interestingly, I'm getting doubled 
speed boost if I use libgfsapi instead of kernel volume mount.

My guess is that I could get significant boost if I could reduce RPC roundtrips 
somehow. So, instead of open->write->close sequence I'd like to use single 
write(filename, ...) call.

Can someone point me to the relevant places in Gluster source code and briefly 
explain how to acomplish that? I really need just some rough ideas.

This can be done using anonymous fd write. There are APIs exported by libgfapi to do anonymous write (glfs_h_anonymous_write). Please refer to 'tests/basic/gfapi/anonymous_fd_read_write.c' regarding its usage.

Thanks,
Soumya
