also i think you should be able to get better performance if you use
vfs_glusterfs [1]. From what I understand it's similar to samba what
nfs-ganesha does for nfs, it uses the libgfapi directly rather than
sharing a fuse-mount
[1] https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/current/man-html/vfs_glusterfs.8.html
on my test machine i did this: (centos 7)
first we need to install |samba-vfs-glusterfs| and of course the samba
server which comes as a dependency:
yum install samba-vfs-glusterfs
gluster volume set vol1 server.allow-insecure on
now stop and start the gluster volume, this will auto-create a
(non-working, how funny is that) configuration in |/etc/samba/smb.conf|
gluster volume stop vol1
gluster volume start vol1
now edit |/etc/samba/smb.conf| and add |kernel share modes = no| and
also |guest ok=yes| to the newly created |[gluster-vol1]| section so
that it finally looks about like this:
[gluster-vol1]
comment = For samba share of volume vol1
vfs objects = glusterfs
glusterfs:volume = vol1
glusterfs:logfile = /var/log/samba/glusterfs-vol1.%M.log
glusterfs:loglevel = 7
path = /
read only = no
guest ok = yes
kernel share modes = no
now restart samba
systemctl restart smb
and now you should be able to mount the samba share
mount.cifs -o guest //gluster1/gluster-vol1 /mnt/cifs

Hello Anoop,
it is a known issue that Gluster+Samba has a poor performance
especially for small files.
May this manual can give you more inspiration how to setup your
Gluster and Samba environment.
Regards
David Spisla

This particular group command is only available from v6.0 (as
of now).
