Pull Requests very welcome, but we are unlikely to get to this ourselves.
We started with Gluster, but it turns out that its performance degrades quickly with medium to high workloads. So we switched our default file share option to NFS, but it's not highly available.
We should provide a highly available and yet performant file share alternative. NFS HA (this and this) seems to be a possible option, but it feels too hairy a solution. lsyncd seems a promising alternative, just for the /moodle/html directory, while still keeping the /moodle/moodledata directory in gluster.
