[Gluster-users] Major performance problem with WRF

We are attempting to run WRF to a shared glusterfs filesystem.  It is 
not going well at all.  WRF does a bunch of fseeks as well as writes and 
I'm seeing at least a 30:1 slowdown between accessing the underlying 
filesystem vs going through glusterfs.  A coworker has written a trivial 
test program that implements this sort of access pattern.  Currently 
using the 1.4.0rc7 version.

Help?
