If you delete those from the bricks it will start healing them - restoring
from other bricks
I have similar issue with email storage which uses maildir format with
millions of small files
doing delete on the server takes days
sometimes worth recreating volumes wiping .glusterfs on bricks, deleting
files on bricks, creating volumes again and repopulating .glusterfs by
querying attr
