You maybe referring to the lookup everywhere that DHT triggers to be
sure the file is not present anywhere else, and that layout changes
caused the hashed to change.
If so as an optimization for the same, this is where we are/should be
headed,
- http://review.gluster.org/#/c/7702/ (lookup-unhashed optimization)
- http://review.gluster.org/#/c/8414/ (layout versions that should later
lead to the same lookup-unhashed among other things)
