Nope, the storage nodes are doing nothing other than mogstored at this time.
Did you try using another HTTP server (lighttpd, nginx, apache, ...) for the file transfers to the storage nodes? I suspect most/many users use that so mogstored doesn't get used that much in high traffic environments ...
No I have not tried this. Do you believe mogstored is pretty useless in a production environment? If that's true and widely known, it's too bad the documents don't reflect this... Is there a document or list posting that explains what parts of mogilefs should be tuned (or outright replaced) for a high-traffic application?
Are there documents stashed somewhere that I'm missing? I looked at the "new" wiki (last updates about 5 and 10 months ago) and read everything available there, and I've read most of the man pages. I keep finding stuff that I'm totally not getting. I would welcome some advice or pointers on how to get apache set up to replace mogstored for file transfers...
