Probably not. If there is, it would probably favor XFS. The developers<br>
at Red Hat use XFS almost exclusively. We at Facebook have a mix, but<br>
XFS is (I think) the most common. Whatever the developers use tends to<br>
become "the way local filesystems work" and code is written based on<br>
that profile, so even without intention that tends to get a bit of a<br>
boost. To the extent that ZFS makes different tradeoffs - e.g. using<br>
lots more memory, very different disk access patterns - it's probably<br>
going to have a bit more of an "impedance mismatch" with the choices<br>
Gluster itself has made.<br>
<br>
If you're interested in ways to benefit from a disk+SSD combo under XFS,<br>
it is possible to configure XFS with a separate journal device but I<br>
believe there were some bugs encountered when doing that. Richard<br>
Wareing's upcoming Dev Summit talk on Hybrid XFS might cover those, in<br>
addition to his own work on using an SSD in even more interesting ways.<br>
