Yes, I forgot to mention it
sheep -n /var/sheep /mnt/sheep/dsk02 -c zookeeper:192.168.2.44:2181,
192.168.2.45:2181,192.168.2.46:2181 -i host=192.168.10.4 port=3333 -w
size=200000G dir=/mnt/sheep/dsk01

Does a write request of a guest differ from a snapshot load?
I know they both generate the same result: n copies or parities.
I don't know if they do it the same way.
BTW, as shown in another mail, snapshot load uses the default -c 3.
I still think 6M/s is slow. I get not less than 30M/s writing from a guest
with -c 3.

I'll test it asap.
