Description of problem:
I create a distribute volume and mount to a dictionary. Then I put 25,000 files
to the dictionary. After finished, I write a program to list the dictionary. I
found the program spent 20s. It's unbelievable. And I copy the dictionary to
root dictionary. And running the program again. The time display just less than
1s. So I think there is some problems in glusterFS. Then I do some more test
for glusterFS. I found that the spent time is normal when the dictionary
contains 20,000 files, but when the number is more than 20,000, it's easy to
show bad performance. Finally, I found the reason of bad performance is stat
function for every file. I don't know why the stat function is spent lots of
time when the dictionary contains 25,000 files. I hope someone can help me.
