Convoy-glusterfs performance help

[seb2411]

HI,

You can check this discussion:

Convoy-gluster on specific storage hosts

I was thinking the limitation is possibly the network. All the VPS propose in general 100Mbps or 200Mbps. If I’m not wrong : 200 Mbps = 25MB/S so To send 1GO we need a minimum of 40s. So we need a 4Gbps network to allow similar performances to a SSD.

I didn’t see anyone having good performance with Convoy-GlusterFs. There are a problem somewhere. But no idea How to fix it. Possibly something in the way the network works with Rancher:

Overlay network performance

Hi, I’m testing rancher (cattle) and I’m noticing slow network performances. I’ve created a rancher environment with 2 agent nodes (public1, public2), added a container stack with a container in each node (agent1, agent2) these are the measurements I get with iperf(iperf -i 1 -t 3): from public2 to container1 [ 3] 0.0- 1.0 sec 113 MBytes 948 Mbits/sec [ 3] 1.0- 2.0 sec 113 MBytes 947 Mbits/sec [ 3] 2.0- 3.0 sec 112 MBytes 940 Mbits/sec [ 3] 0.0- 3.0 sec 338 MBytes…

I’m still testing Rancher, so no production feedback, but yes definitely NFS is working better. You can configure an NFS server (without replication) relatively quickly without using Rancher and so connectecing Convoy on it.
