Might be possible, NFS migh probably add a few latency but I wouldn't recommend 
using GlusterFS instead, it is far slower due to the voulme beeing mounted 
through Fuse.
I already did many testing on GlusterFS for our internal usage and it is by far 
slower than NFS.
CephFS (file sharing "nfs like" filesystem provided by Ceph on top of it's 
storage capabilities, as opposed to the "usual" block mode it provides) could 
be worth trying but I didn't had the opportunity to do some testing by now.
Anyway, I think it should be at most comparable to NFS, not really faster.

I haven't tested it myself yet, but some devs suggested that slow 
session startup (as opposed to slow booting to login screen) may be 
caused by homedirs stored on NFS. 
Might be worth adding a test account that has a homedir "native" to the 
server, and if that brings a significant speed increase, trying out 
other networked filesystems like glusterfs.
