[Gluster-users] Speed up heal performance

Hi Pranith,

Will this patch improve the heal performance on distributed disperse
volume?. Currently we are getting 10MB/s heal performance on 10G backed
network. SHD daemon takes 5 days to complete the heal operation for single
4TB( 3.5 TB data) disk failure.

Regards,
Backer
