    I'm not expert, but I can guess that to make the whole thing
    scalable, gluster needs to go through gluster client, then network,
    then gluster server, then native disk write, while native write does
    native disk only.<br>
    <br>
    Again, it doesn't make sense to do such a comparison, or if single
    node fit you, get rid of gluster.<br>

                  <div>You do know that gluster is not about single-node
                    performance? You'll get far better performance by
                    using RAID 0/1/5/10 on your local machine. Gluster
                    gives you multiple machine redundancy (like RAID,
                    but spread across multiple machines), and size
                    scalability beyond what you can fit in one box.</div>
