Gluster users - Jul 2016 - New cluster - first experience

I am not sure if your nics support it but you could try balance-alb
(bonding mode 6), this does not require special switch support and I have
had good results with it.  As Lindsey said the switch configuration could
be limiting the bandwidth between nodes in balance-rr.

Eventi with limited bandwidth should i reach at least 1gbit

In my case I'm not going over 480mbit

I also did some test with balance-alb/balance-tld but i had some issues.
Please don't think about the bonding, i would like to get maximum
speed even with a single connection.
