&gt;                 &gt; Dear All,<br>
&gt;                 &gt;<br>
&gt;                 &gt;<br>
&gt;                 &gt;<br>
&gt;                 &gt; I have a problem with slow writing when there are 10<br>
&gt;                 million files.<br>
&gt;                 &gt; (Top level directories are 2,500.)<br>
&gt;                 &gt;<br>
&gt;                 &gt;<br>
&gt;                 &gt; I configured GlusterFS distributed cluster(3 nodes).<br>
&gt;                 &gt; Each node&#39;s spec is below.<br>
&gt;                 &gt;<br>
&gt;                 &gt;<br>
&gt;                 &gt;  CPU: Xeon E5-2620 (2.00GHz 6 Core)<br>
&gt;                 &gt;  HDD: SATA 7200rpm 4TB*12 (RAID 6)<br>
&gt;                 &gt;  NW: 10GBEth<br>
&gt;                 &gt;  GlusterFS : glusterfs 3.4.2 built on Jan  3 2014<br>
&gt;                 12:38:06<br>
&gt;                 &gt;<br>
&gt;                 &gt; This cluster(volume) is mounted on CentOS via FUSE<br>
&gt;                 client.<br>
&gt;                 &gt; This volume is storage of our application and I want<br>
&gt;                 to store 3<br>
&gt;                 &gt; hundred million to 5 billion files.<br>
&gt;                 &gt;<br>
&gt;                 &gt;<br>
&gt;                 &gt; I performed a writing test, writing 32KByte file ×<br>
&gt;                 10 million to this<br>
&gt;                 &gt; volume, and encountered a problem.<br>
&gt;                 &gt;<br>
&gt;                 &gt;<br>
&gt;                 &gt; (1) Writing is so slow and slow down as number of<br>
&gt;                 files increases.<br>
&gt;                 &gt;   In non clustering situation(one node), this node&#39;s<br>
&gt;                 writing speed is<br>
&gt;                 &gt; 40 MByte/sec at random,<br>
&gt;                 &gt;   But writing speed is 3.6MByte/sec on that cluster.<br>
&gt;                 &gt; (2) ls command is very slow.<br>
&gt;                 &gt;   About 20 second. Directory creation takes about 10<br>
&gt;                 seconds at<br>
&gt;                 &gt; lowest.<br>
&gt;                 &gt;<br>
&gt;                 &gt;<br>
&gt;                 &gt; Question:<br>
&gt;                 &gt;<br>
&gt;                 &gt;  1)5 Billion files are possible to store in<br>
&gt;                 GlusterFS?<br>
&gt;                 &gt;   Has someone succeeded to store billion  files to<br>
&gt;                 GlusterFS?<br>
&gt;                 &gt;<br>
&gt;                 &gt;  2) Could you give me a link for a tuning guide or<br>
&gt;                 some information of<br>
&gt;                 &gt; tuning?<br>
&gt;                 &gt;<br>
&gt;                 &gt; Thanks.<br>
