That really sounds like a bug with the sharding. I'm not using sharding
on my setup and files are writeable (vim) with 2 bytes and no errors
occur.Perhaps the small size is cached until it's large enough to
trigger a write

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you
gain at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his
own tail. It won't fatten the dog.
