We started even before 2.0.8, and ran into problems. More'n likely these were amenable to remedy, but we didn't really have time on a quasi-production cluster to sort out the poor performance. Fast forward to 3.0.8 and today. We've seen some issued with OFED that have been problematic, and performance is dropping again. However, this time, I think we're going to work with the Gluster folk and sort it out. When it works, it really works well. </p> <p>gerry </p> We’ve used Gluster now a couple of times, and we’re still having some performance problems and growing pains.
