[Gluster-users] [Gluster-devel] Bitrot: Time of signing depending on the file size???

[Kotresh Hiremath Ravishankar]

Hi David,

Thanks for raising the bug. But from the above validation, it's clear that
bitrot is not directly involved. Bitrot waits for last fd to be closed. We
will have to investigate the reason for fd not being closed for large files.

Thanks,
Kotresh HR
