[Gluster-devel] option alu.limits.min-free-disk 6GB didn't seem to work.

I've been running a test on 2TB glusterfs. I've filled almost 700GB total, 
but one
brick got full (0 Bytes Available). I had an aluu.min-free-disk option set 
to 6GB, so I expected
that the volume would not fill up and leave 6GB *Available*. The drive is a 
500GB drive
and after formatting ext3, shows 459GB. I see it says that 440GB is used, 
but that 19GB
is not useful to me, so I assume that the 6GB option would have meant that I 
would have
6GB available for use. Did I have to specify 25GB min-free-disk to get 6GB 
of Available space?
I'm not sure if this is a bug, or if I'm incorrectly using the feature. As a 
general rule, I like
to keep at least 10% available for each disk before going critical, but I 
don't have a feature
to specify % of HD total size.
