Yep, using it with proxmox so it's qemu. Performances seems good, but it does depend on the setup. I know currently our production cluster is using 3.7.6 on 3 nodes across 2 datacenters, with 10ms ping between them. Seemed mostly fine at first but a client complained about performances, so I installed a 3.7.11 cluster between 3 nodes across two datacenters closer together (same town so not much ping between) and did some testing, it's a lot better and the client was happy. I don't know how much the update contributed, but I assume the ping is playing a bit part in this. I could send you the bonnie++ results from those two tests tomorrow if you want, kept that at work. I'll probably test that again with 3.7.12 just to compare. -- Kevin Lemonnier PGP Fingerprint : 89A5 2283 04A0 E6E9 0111
