Hi, I have been following sheepdog's mailinglist ever since i saw a newspost on www.linux-kvm.com, but what kept me wondering was the performance. At the moment i don't have 3 servers with SMX/VMX to spare for testing sheepdog, so i haven't been able to test sheepdog jet. At the company i work we use a lot of KVM, our redundant storage is build on top of iSCSI and DRBD. The performance is great (IOps), so that's not an issue, but the waste of hardware is (Master/Slave setup). The question that kept me busy was, how is the performance of sheepdog? Yes, i understand that sheepdog and btrfs are still under heavy development, but in this stage, how is it performing? Since sheepdog really seems THE solution for building a real cloud with KVM. I'll keep following sheepdog closely and try to set-up a test envirioment asap! -- Met vriendelijke groet, Wido den Hollander Hoofd Systeembeheer / CSO Telefoon Support Nederland: 0900 9633 (45 cpm) Telefoon Support België: 0900 70312 (45 cpm) Telefoon Direct: (+31) (0)20 50 60 104 Fax: +31 (0)20 50 60 111 E-mail: support at pcextreme.nl Website: http://www.pcextreme.nl Kennisbank: http://support.pcextreme.nl/ Netwerkstatus: http://nmc.pcextreme.nl |
