Hey Chris,

What type is your VM ?

CentOS7.

Try with 'High Performance' one (there is a  good RH documentation on that 
topic).

I was googly-eying that as well. Will try that tonight :)

1. Check the VM disk scheduler. Use 'noop/none' (depends on multiqueue is 
enabled) to allow  the Hypervisor aggregate the I/O requests from multiple VMs.
Next, set 'noop/none' disk scheduler  on the hosts - these 2 are the optimal 
for SSDs and NVME disks  (if I recall corectly you are  using SSDs)

Yeah the gluster disks do have noop already.

2. Disable cstates on the host and Guest (there are a lot of articles  about 
that)

Not sure its a CPU bottleneck in any capacity, but ill dig into this.

3. Enable MTU 9000 for Hypervisor (gluster node).

Already done.

4. You can try setting/unsetting the tunables in the db-workload  group and run 
benchmarks with real workload  .

Will also check!

5.  Some users  reported  that enabling  TCP offload  on the hosts gave huge  
improvement in performance  of gluster  - you can try that.
Of course  there are mixed  feelings - as others report  that disabling it 
brings performance. I guess  it is workload  specific.



performance.write-behind-window-size: 64MB (shard  size)

This one doubled my speed from 200mb to 400mb!!

I think this is where the meat is at.

-Chris.
