Ovirt is using the default shard file of 64MB and I don't think this is 'small file' at all. There are a lot of tunables to optimize Gluster and I can admit it's not an easy task.
Deadline is good for databases, but with SSDs you should try the performance of enabled multiqueue and the 'none' scheduler. By default EL7 is not using multiqueue. PV alignment is important and you can implement it by destroying the brick and recreating it .You need the stripe size and the stripe width (stripe size x data disk in the raid) during the pvcreate. In your case you could consider using the SSDs in JBOD mode, as in case of failiure you will recover only 1 disk. In raid0 the ammount of I/O towards the disks will be the same , which can lead to predictive failiure at the same time. For more details , check RHGS 3.5 Administration Guide. The rhgs-random-io is optimized for Gluster workloads and can bring benefits. In my case, I use a mix of rhgs-random-io and virtual-host. The XFS isize looks OK. You should apply the settings from the virt group, if you wish the optimal settings. WARNING: NEVER disable sharding once enabled -> stays enabled!
