Can "gluster" serve FLV files without any front-end server layers just using the built-in HTTP protocol ? How would the IOPS compare to standard apache serving? Would gluster help me with I/O limits of harddrives, if I chained a lot of machines together?

Thank you!

I'm running the official GlusterFS 3.5 packages on Ubuntu 12.04 and everything seems to be working fine, except mounting the GlusterFS volumes at boot time.

Can I run mysqld on top of glusterfs?

I have been playing with glusterfs recently. What I want to try is to run mysqld on top of the glusterfs in a similar way as it is possible to run MySQL on top of DRBD. I am familiar with MySQL replication and the advantages of using that instead of this approach and I am also aware of MongoDB… >>> More

Throughput = BS * IOPS?

as seen on Server Fault - Search for 'Server Fault'
I've seen in many places that throughput = bs * iops should be true. For example writing at 128k block size to a SAS disk that can support 190 IOPS should give a throughput of ~23 MBps - 23.75(MBs) = 128(BS)*190(SAS-15 IOPS)/1024. Now when I tested it in a VM against a monster NetApp filer I got… >>> More

Calculating IOPS for a single HDD - what am I doing wrong?

as seen on Server Fault - Search for 'Server Fault'
So I know there is no standardized way of calculating IOPS for a HDD, but from everything I have read it appears one of the most accurate formulas is the following: IOP/ms = + {rotational latency} + ({block size} / {data transfer rate}) Which is IOs per millisecond or what the book I've been reading… >>> More
