[Gluster-devel] glusterd takes a long time to start

Actually, no. It is because glusterd (which is just a different incarnation
glusterfsd) now returns proper error code by waiting long enough
(completion of init()). The init() in glusterd actually can take some time
since it starts all the brick processes. Previously all this would happen
in the background after starting glusterd (i.,e return of glusterd to shell
wouldn't truly have "completed the startup") and now it just waits and
returns the right exit status to the shell.
