There are 3 issues with adding GPU and adding code to glusterFS: 1. Cost: Since you cannot stick any GTX card inside your server, you'll be forced to buy a $2K+ card for that. That could be an issue if the GlusterFS is made out of old/cheap servers and the company/institution doesn't have money fo

I like the idea immensely. As long as the gpu usage can be specified for server-only, client and server, client and server with a client limit of X. Don't want to take gpu cycles away from machine learning for file IO. Also must support multiple GPUs and GPU pinning. Really useful for encryptio

Sounds like a good option to look into, but I wouldn’t want it to take time & resources away from other, non-GPU based, methods of improving this. Mainly because I don’t have discrete GPUs in most of my systems. While I could add them to my main server cluster pretty easily, many of my clients a
