Hello Gluster Folks,

One can use dd, iometer, "internal" data sets and OLTP workloads for
performance testing of GlusterFS.

Is there a "standardized" workload/benchmark for DFS such as GlusterFS..

The ones you mention are "standard" benchmarks. They are mostly useless for gauging real-world performance. The only worthwhile testing is testing for your particular application.

But if you really want a "redneck" test, I find kernel-building on a machine with lots of fast cores with a suitable -j parameter works quite well. You will need a machine that has enough CPU to saturate the I/O, though (4+ cores running at 3+ GHz).
