Ray,

What sort of performance we can expect from gpfs for
small files? I worry about the metadata overhead.
Specifically, since we are going to use gpfs as a way
to "move" files from pipeline host to data ingest host
and it is for real time alerts, I would be interested
to know how long it takes to write a 10 KB file and
move it to another directory.

Thanks,
Jacek

Sounds like IBM GFS should be on our distributed file system eval list...


FYI, GPFS is what we use on Teragrid, though probably not this version. Anyway, we have a fair amount of data on this one.

cheers,
Ray
