Here's the out-dated page - I didn't even notice that stat-prefetch wasn't on the new one.
http://www.gluster.com/community/documentation/index.php/Translators Documentation is a bit of a challenge with GlusterFS ... I know that doing it and keeping it up to date is one of the harder things to do on a project - I did it for a living at one point.

I don't see stat prefetch translator in there. Just so this important question doesn't get lost I will ask again :) How will I know if self heal worked or not. What's the best way to tell? I see there are 2 find commands and it looks in some cases running one may not be sufficient. So how can we make sure that self heal worked. Currently I am testing with one file so it's easy to verify but with millions of files it may not be possible.
