Hello everyone, We are trying to set up a Gluster-based storage for best performance. On the official Gluster website. It says: Striped ? Striped volumes stripes data across bricks in the volume. For best results, you should use striped volumes only in high concurrency environments accessing very large files. Is there a rule-of-thumb on what size qualifies as "very large files" here? Many thanks, Dave -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://lists.gluster.org/pipermail/gluster-users/attachments/20170117/184faf34/attachment.html>
Could you describe what use-case you intend to use striping for? -Krutika On Tue, Jan 17, 2017 at 12:52 PM, Dave Fan <dave.fan at shudun.com> wrote:> Hello everyone, > > We are trying to set up a Gluster-based storage for best performance.
