Hi,
Please let me know in case you need any more details. Even for only write
operations fuse seems to outperform libgfapi. Is it because of disperse
volumes?. Also I noticed a lot of data loss in case I use libgfapi asyn I/O for
disperse volumes.
Fuse and gfapi seem to take same amount of time to complete the run,
i.e. 18 seconds. Could you let me know what you mean by fuse
outperforming gfapi?

Hi,
I upgraded my setup to gluster 3.7.3. I tested writes by performing
writes through fuse and through libgfapi. Attached are the profiles generated
from fuse and libgfapi. The test programs essentially writes 10000 blocks each
of 128K.

Vijay,
We are trying to write data backed up by Commvault simpana to
glusterfs volume. The data being written is around 30 GB. Two kinds of write
requests happen.
1) 1MB requests
2) Small write requests of size 128 bytes. In case of libgfapi access
these are cached and a single 128KB write request is made where as in case of
FUSE the 128 byte write request is handled to FUSE directly.

hi,
Things look okay. May be we can find something using profile info.
Could you post the results of the following operations:
1) gluster volume profile <volname> start
2) Run the fuse workload
3) gluster volume profile <volname> info > /path/to/file-1/to/send/us
4) Run the libgfapi workload
5)gluster volume profile <volname> info > /path/to/file-2/to/send/us
Send both these files to us to check what are the extra fops if any that are
sent over network which may be causing the delay.
I see that you are using disperse volume. If you are going to use disperse
volume for production usecases, I suggest you use 3.7.x preferably 3.7.3. We
fixed a bug in releases from 3.7.4 till 3.7.6 which will be released in 3.7.7.
Pranith
Thanks and Regards,
Ram

Hi,
I am trying to use libgfapi interface to access gluster
volume. What I noticed is that reads/writes to the gluster volume
through libgfapi interface are slower than FUSE. I was expecting the
contrary. Are there any recommendations/settings suggested to be used
while using libgfapi interface.
Can you please provide more details about your tests? Providing information
like I/O block size, file size, throughput would be helpful.
Thanks,
Vijay
