Dear Shubhank,

this small file performance appears to be slow on glusterfs usually.

Can you provide more details according to your setup? (zfs settings,
bonding, tuned-adm profile, etc, ...)


From a gluster point of view, setting performance.write-behind-window
to 128MB increases performance.

I was able to hit the cpu limit using smallfile benchmark tool
(available on github) and native glusterfs-client with that knob.


Furthermore, throughput increases if you increase the number of rsync
processes ( -> github -> msrsync works well here).


Regards,

Felix

Hello users,

I have started using gluster just a few weeks ago and I am rocking a
Replicated-Distributed setup with arbiters (A) and SATA Volumes (V). I
have around 6 volumes and 3 arbiters in this setup:
V+V+A | V+V+A | V+V+A

All these volumes are spread across 3 different nodes, all of them
being 1Gbit. Due to hardware limitations, SSD or 10Gbit network is not
available.

But even then, testing via iperf and normal rsync of files between
servers, I am easily able to achieve 700Mbps~
[ ID] Interval           Transfer     Bandwidth       Retr  Cwnd
[  4]   0.00-1.00   sec  49.9 MBytes   419 Mbits/sec   21  132 KBytes
[  4]   1.00-2.00   sec  80.0 MBytes   671 Mbits/sec    0  214 KBytes
[  4]   2.00-3.00   sec  87.0 MBytes   730 Mbits/sec    3  228 KBytes
[  4]   3.00-4.00   sec  91.6 MBytes   769 Mbits/sec   15  215 KBytes

But when rsyncing data from same server to another node with mounted
glusterVolume, I am getting measly 50Mbps (7MBps).

All servers have 64GB Ram and their memory usage is around 50% and CPU
usage less than 10%.
All bricks are zfs volumes, no Raid setup or anything.  All volumes
are direct hard disks formatted as ZFS (JBOD setup).
