Description nh2 2017-05-14 16:33:30 UTC
Description of problem (on gluster 3.10.1):

With default settings, geo-replication has very high latency, about 15 seconds until a change done to a master appears on a replication slave.

The key setting to control this delay is `rollover-time`.

This setting is not documented in glusterfs docs; I could only find it via mailing list replies and in the Troubleshooting section of RedHat Storage: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Storage/3.1/html/Administration_Guide/sect-Troubleshooting_Geo-replication.html.

Please add the relevant settings to the docs, and also a section in the geo-replication docs to give hints on how latency can be improved.
