This workload is just a program I wrote for doing some readdir stuff just creating 10,000 entries in a newly created directory (created outside the program with mkdir command), doing a readdir, and then exit (the program can do more, but that's all I wanted in this case) and then issue a rm -Rf the directory created, and then terminating Ganesha.
I'll be looking into the allocation stack today to see what I can suss out.
