> In the swift filesystem for openstack, a rename operation on a partitioned
> file uses the swift COPY operation, which attempts to consolidate all of the
> partitions into a single object. This causes the rename to fail when the
> total size of all the partitions exceeds the maximum object size for swift.
> Since partitioned files are primarily created to allow a file to exceed the
> maximum object size, this bug makes writing to swift extremely unreliable.
