Well thanks to you guys too. It would have been easy to stop replying
when things got hard. I understand best effort community support and
appreciate you sticking with us.

The test system I had is disappearing on Monday. However, a larger test
system will be less booked after a release finalizes. So I have a
test platform through early next week, and will again have something in a
couple weeks. I also may have a window at 1k nodes at a customer site
during a maintenance window... And we should have a couple big ones
going through the factory in the comings weeks in the 1k size. At 1k
nodes, we have 3 gluster servers.

THANKS AGAIN. Wow what a relief.

Let me get these changes checked in so I can get it to some customers and
then look at getting a new thread going on the thread hangs.
