Does the heal process crawl from any particular node when invoked?  I have
3 nodes.  I ran command from node 3, node 2 is one with files needing
healed, node 1 is brick I heaeld yesterday but forgot to set xattr=sa on
which usually has bad performance results for zfsonlinux.  I did set it
about 30 minutes into the heal figuring better some than none until I could
redo it again.

12 hours later the 1TB of data was healed so I figured I'd move on to node
2, then 3.  Then assuming 12 hour windows for each node I could redo node 1
with correct settings before Monday.  When node 1 healed it first found all
the visible files from mount point and .glusterfs, hen numbers jumped back
up after those were done and it started finding shards.  It happened fairly
quickly.  2nd time around with node 2 it is crawling to a standstill while
finding all the shards to heal.  I'm wondering if its doing the crawl from
node 1 and the poor settings that existed for first 30 minutes of file
heals is slowing it down.  If so I would hope once the files that were
created/healed while settings weren't correct are found and it moves past
them the rest should go faster.

The only errors in any logs are brick logs

And I would hope that it's just related to heal process or when a shard is
hit and its found it doesnt exist here it errors out as expected.
