Super, let me know if you see issues. The difference in your two tests
is that fio will compress the log on the server side, to reduce the
amount of data we have to transfer. The bug was on the compression side,
so the client only got the first chunk of partial data. That meant that
we'd have the correct number of entries in the log, but the majority of
it would be zeroes...

This is the last commit I saw in master branch upstream just now after
pulling into my clone:

     server: ensure that we flush compressed logs correctly

     Do chunkwise block compression, and flush at the end, adding more space
     as needed.

Yes, that's the fix in question.

When I run fio -h after rebuild, it shows I'm on this commit because
last 4 hex digits of version "fio-2.11-5-ge35f" are first 4 digits of
git commit ID, which is reassuring.

That's why I added it :-)

Most people never include the version of fio when they report a bug, at
least we'll have the version if they paste the fio output.
