hi, 

could anyone give me a quick hint on how to correctly use the booster 
translator? I always get errors like "[unix.c:81:unix_disconnect] 
booster: connection disconnected":

I have it as the last entry in the client.spec, after unify

volume bricks
  type cluster/unify
  ...
end-volume

volume booster
  type performance/booster
  #option translator-type [unix|tcp|ib-verbs|ib-sdp] (unix)
  option translator-type tcp
  subvolumes bricks
end-volume

and start my app with 
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/glusterfs/glusterfs-booster.so ./myapp

test was with tla-648


Thanks, Sascha
