you can do the following:

# gluster volume set $vol performance.o-thread-count 64
Today’s CPU are powerful enough to handle 64 threads per volume.

# gluster volume set $vol client.event-threads XX
XX depend on the number of connections from the FUSE client to the server, you can get this number by running netstat and grep on the server IP and count the number of connections.

# gluster volume set $vol server.event-threads XX

XX depend on the number of connections from the server to the client(s), you can get this number by running netstat and grep on “gluster" and count the number of connections.

also, you can follow the instructions in the following page:
