We're Skunkworks at Vietnam (skunkworks.vn); we have a small MFS setup with 1 master, 1 metalogger and 2 chunk servers (these chunk servers are also the clients.) The primary purpose is to replicate and share data between machines (which are provided by Amazon, cf. http://aws.amazon.com/ec2). We found that NFS was so complex, so we choose MFS ;) Our current storage is only 186 GB, but it will be expanded soon.

As our servers are running in a cloud/virtual environments, the speed varies and depends on global load: for writing, it varies from 3MiB/s -> 154 MiB/s (the maximum value that I experienced.)

Have fun,
