[Gluster-devel] Question about Glusterfs

[Amar S. Tumballi]

Hi Antonio,
 Client side unify is simple and easier approach in my opinion. But
depending on how your i/o pattern is, how your network topology is, you may
want to change it. but to start with, unify on client side is a better
approach.

Regards,
Amar
