We used it about a year ago for our infrastructure (backup and live sync of HA systems), obviously both servers and clients were used, both on Gentoo. We stopped this because of numerous kernel panics, not to mention that it was quite slow even after tuning. So we switch to another solution for data sync and backups: clsync. (It was developed from scratch for our needs, this is not a filesystem, but may be considered as more powerful alternative to lsyncd.) Though this was a year ago or so. Your mileage may vary and it is likely that during this year stability was improved. Ceph is very promising by both design and capabilities. Best regards, Andrew Savchenko
