Translators/performance/io-threads

From GlusterDocumentation

Translator performance/io-threads

IO-threads add asynchronous (background) file system operations. By loading this translator, you can utilize the server idle blocked time to handle new incoming requests. CPU, memory, and the network are not utilized when the server is blocked on read or write calls while doing direct memory access on disk. This translator makes the best use of all the resources under load and improves concurrent I/O performance.

volume iothreads
  type performance/io-threads
