[Gluster-devel] Setup recommendations - 2 (io-threads)

[Amar S. Tumballi]

Hi Anton,
 Sorry for the delay in response. ''io-threads'' translator creates seperate
threads (as specified by the option). But, it doesn't make sense to have
more threads than number of CPUs available. It works good if the thread
count is same as number of CPUs you have in server.
