[Gluster-users] Confusing lstat() performance

[Niklas Hambüchen]

Hi Ben,

do you know if the smallfile benchmark also does interleaved getdents()
and lstat, which is what I found as being the key difference that
creates the performance gap (further down this thread)?

Also, wouldn't `--threads 8` change the performance numbers by factor 8
versus the plain `ls` and `rsync` that I did?

Would you mind running those commands directly/plainly on your cluster
to confirm or refute my numbers?

Thanks!
