[Gluster-devel] Connecting via unix socket instead of IP socket

Is there a way to mount locally via a unix domain socket rather than via 
loopback interface? It seems rather wasteful to be passing all the 
traffic through the TCP/IP stack for a local mount in cases when the 
server is also a client for the shared mount.

i.e. is there something like "option transport-type unix/client"?
