Thanks Anand for being there to answer all my questions !

I've used the cluster/stripe translator in a local-only setup 

# glusterfs client
volume data-2-local
  type storage/posix
  option directory /data-2
end-volume

volume data-3-local
  type storage/posix
  option directory /data-3
end-volume

volume data-striped
  type cluster/stripe
  subvolumes data-2-local data-3-local
  option block-size *:1MB
end-volume


Whatever the block-size (64kB, 128kB, 1MB, 64MB), iostat reports 30MB/s/disk which is less than half the nominal (each data-X storage is a separate XRaid FC controller able to ingest 80MB/s)
