[Gluster-users] Shared storage for KVM

Hello, 

I'm looking at Gluster for a possible solution for storing VM images for a KVM cluster on Ubuntu. I would like to set it up as a RAID 1+0 setup across multiple servers. 

How is Gluster performance as backend storage for KVM (or even Xen for that matter)? 

Is it difficult to add additional nodes and re-balance the storage if I need additional storage growth? 

Thanks, 
Kris
