Well, the issue also goes away if we do either of two other things that are advantageous for other reasons: - Don't issue RPCs we know will fail (mkdir EEXIST, rmdir ENOTEMPTY, maybe others). Even without the abort threshold, this causes an unnecessary delay waiting for the fileserver to respond. This is really noticeable with git in AFS. - Don't raise aborts for every single kind of error (like InlineBulkStatus). Aborts aren't secure, for one thing. -- Andrew Deason adea...@sinenomine.net _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list OpenAFS-info@openafs.org https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
