There are dozens of millions of files taking up about 60TB of space. A
heal full would take days, maybe weeks. Half of my bricks are at 95
percent capacity. I need to get the rebalance going again as soon as
possible ... We had a near-catastrophic rebalance failure in November on
3.3.1, upgraded a few days ago, and tried again. These heal troubles are
the result.

Thanks,
