402
Since the balancing algorithm can sometimes result in just very tiny
403
improvements, that bring less gain that they cost in relocation time,
404
this parameter (defaulting to 0.01) represents the minimum gain we
405
require during a step, to continue balancing.

The above min-gain option will only take effect if the cluster score
410
is already below \fIthreshold\fR (defaults to 0.1). The rationale
411
behind this setting is that at high cluster scores (badly balanced
412
clusters), we don't want to abort the rebalance too quickly, as later
413
gains might still be significant. However, under the threshold, the
414
total gain is only the threshold value, so we can exit early.

This parameter prevents hbal from using disk move (i.e. "gnt\-instance

replace\-disks") operations. This will result in a much quicker
