Hi Josh,

Another potentially useful config setting for anyone using KFS is

I think the variance you observed here must have just been a coincidence.
This property is no longer used by the KFS broker.

Since you're using KFS, you should be able to stop and start the cluster
with just:

cap stop
cap start

In other words, you should be able to stop Hypertable by just killing all
the binaries.  Have you observed that this does not work?
