[Gluster-users] gluster 3.12 memory leak

[Jim Kinney]

Did this get released yet? Fuse client mounting on a computational
cluster that writes a few thousand files a day on a slow day is causing

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you
gain at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his
own tail. It won't fatten the dog.
