If there is no write activity (either application driven or gluster's

perform all reads through a gluster client stack.
OK, yes, I understand and that all makes sense.
We some files that are not active (such as periodic MySQL "archive"
dumps), so on those we can pull from the brick.
For others, that may be active, we will continue to use the client mount.
Thank You
