[Gluster-users] High load on glusterfsd process

Hi Abhishek,

Bitrot requires versioning of files to be down on writes.
This was being done irrespective of whether bitrot is
enabled or not. This takes considerable CPU. With the
fix https://review.gluster.org/#/c/14442/, it is made
optional and is enabled only with bitrot. If bitrot
is not enabled, then you won't see any setxattr/getxattrs
related to bitrot.

The fix would be available in 3.11. 


Thanks and Regards,
Kotresh H R
