[Gluster-users] unlimited memory usage

[Bernhard Dübi]

Hi,

one more question: when I can convince my boss to buy another machine to
separate the load of Gluster and
Backup onto different machines, will this solve my problem or will the
Gluster client also eat up all memory it can get?

Best Regards
Bernhard
