** No longer affects: python-glanceclient

** Description changed:

  When uploading a volume to glance as an image, the glance server don't
  know the image size, so the backend storage server(such as ceph) need to
  resize the image every time it received new chunk of data(by default
- 64K). So there will be huge times of resize operations that will
- terribly impact the performance.

backend storage system:
  In file: glance_store/_drivers/rbd.py, function: add
  In file: glance_store/_drivers/cinder.py, function: add
  In file: glance_store/_drivers/sheepdog.py, function: add
  In all these files, there're comments like below:
      # If the image size provided is zero we need to do
      # a resize for the amount we are writing. This will
      # be slower so setting a higher chunk size may
      # speed things up a bit.
