[Gluster-users] Disabling read-ahead and io-cache for native fuse mounts

[Darrell Budic]

Is there an example of a custom profile you can share for my ovirt use case (with gfapi enabled)? Or are you just talking about the standard group settings for virt as a custom profile?

At best read-ahead is redundant due to kernel read-ahead and at worst io-cache is degrading the performance for workloads that doesn't involve re-read. Given that VFS already have both these functionalities, I am proposing to have these two translators turned off by default for native fuse mounts.
