Doing more searching, it appears there are several posts on various forums describing the same issue with Gluster deployments of 4+ nodes (e.g. http://serverfault.com/questions/453345/certain-operations-like-ls-hang-in-4 -node-gluster-setup). None of these posts are answered which doesn't fill me with confidence. Can anyone confirm a 4+ node cluster with replication that does not show this (indefinite hang on ls or ll) behavior?

With a glusterfs mount (which is successful) I can copy files into the mounted volume but any command to list the contents (ls or ll) hangs forever while ls (for example uses ~ 5% of the system's CPU and glusterfs uses ~ 50% of the system's CPU). I've never seen this behavior before with my other Gluster deployments, even much larger / more complicated ones. This one is pretty ordinary. Any advice appreciated.
