Brandon,
which is the fuse kernel module version you are using? please with the fuse
kernel module from -
http://ftp.zresearch.com/pub/gluster/glusterfs/fuse/old/fuse-2.7.0.tar.gz
we have been seeing some perf issues with small files while write-behind is
on. can you try with an untar of large files, with write-behind on?
thanks,
avati
