Hi Ben,
But without glusterfs if i run the same command with dsync on the same
ssd...it gives me good throughput...all setup (CPU,RAM,Network are same)
the only difference is no glusterfs...
[root at cpu09 mnt]# dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=64k count=4k oflag=dsync
4096+0 records in
4096+0 records out
268435456 bytes (268 MB) copied, 0.935646 s, 287 MB/s
[root at cpu09 mnt]#
[image: Inline image 1]
But on the top of the glusterfs it gives too slow performance....i run the
ssd trim every night to clean the garbage collection...i think there is
something need to do from gluster or OS side to improve the
performance....otherwise no use to use the ALL SSD with gluster because
with all SSD you will get the performance slower then SATA....
