Restarting gluster daemons on debacle does not help. And in the meantime, the 
volume is reported as heahly:

I have always beeing running the same test, which is building NetBSD 
inside a glusterfs volume. This tests a lot of things, and it exposed many 
bugs so far. I think it would be valuable to have it done automatically:

0) setup a replicated and distributed volume, switch to an unprivilegied user
1) fetch .tgz from ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-6.1.2/source/sets/
2) for i in syssrc sharesrc gnusrc src ; do ( tar -xzf $i.tgz & ) ; done
3) cd usr/src && ./build.sh -Um i386 release

Last time I did it with success was on 3.4.0 with eager locks disabled. 
Building took 37 hours.
