--- Comment #6 from Worker Ant <bugzilla-bot at gluster.org> ---
COMMIT: https://review.gluster.org/18312 committed in master by \"Raghavendra
G\" <rgowdapp at redhat.com> with a commit message- cluster/dht: don't overfill
the buffer in readdir(p)

Superflous dentries that cannot be fit in the buffer size provided by
kernel are thrown away by fuse-bridge. This means,

* the next readdir(p) seen by readdir-ahead would have an offset of a
dentry returned in a previous readdir(p) response. When readdir-ahead
detects non-monotonic offset it turns itself off which can result in
poor readdir performance.

* readdirp can be cpu-intensive on brick and there is no point to read
 all those dentries just to be thrown away by fuse-bridge.

So, the best strategy would be to fill the buffer optimally - neither
overfill nor underfill.
