Hi all, I feel bad about such a big cc list, but I don't know who can be left out :/ Still got the performance issue with the load balancer. Additionally, when trying to test with 48 VMs under load, they consistently all lock up after a few minutes, which we traced as far as ocfs2 dying. We're investigating it as an ocfs2 issue, and we'll try and replicate on ext4 / nfs, but I just thought it might be somehow related.
