[sheepdog-users] When does sheepdog flush the cache?

Hi,
small cluster, 2 nodes, copies=2 (-m unsafe).
version: 0.5.5_62_gee9a5c6
options: sheep -w object size=20000 /mnt/ssd_sheepdog
I converted a qcow2 disk without using the '-t directsync' option just
to test the conversion speed.
On the second node I see as expected
collie vdi list
Name Id Size Used
win7 1 30 GB 0.0 MB
Right now data are only on the first disk.
Using 'collie vdi cache flush vdiname' would start using the second node.
Instead of running 'collie vdi cache flush', I started a guest that
uses the vdi.
kvm -drive file=sheepdog:squeeze -m 1024 -vnc :1
I though it was going to automatically flush the cache right after
running kvm but it doesn't.
Not even waiting 1 hour.
Is that correct?
