[Gluster-users] Files per directory

[Burnash, James]

I'm going through a rebalance operation now on my "small" Glusterfs storage pool - 2 servers, 4 bricks, 30TB of total storage, 175 native Glusterfs clients.

Current files checked is at 3.5 million - a lot of those are in the 1-1.5GB size range.

Hopefully that is of some help - more stats to follow as I get a chance to document them ...

It will be good if I can get some suggestion from people who already
have millions of files on glusterFS.
