Hi Jaervosz,
I recommend using glusterfs-volgen tool to generate optimal volume specification. Even basic performance features are implemented as stackable modules. You need to load them explicitly in the volume specification. Using volgen automates it. Thanks for the post. http://www.gluster.com/community/documentation/index.php/Glusterfs-volgen_Reference_Page

After studying the mount.glusterfs script for a while, I discovered that you have to append the volfile-id to the server-id like this:

192.168.2.1:portage /usr/portage glusterfs defaults 0 0

When I put a line like this in my /etc/fstab it passes the volfile-id parameter to the mount command properly.
