This refactor is done for few reasons below
- to avoid deadlocks in scenarios when number
of nodes are smaller < actual erasure stripe
count where in N participating local lockers
can lead to deadlocks across systems.
- avoids expiry routines to run 1000 of separate
network operations and routes per disk where
as each of them are still accessing one single
local entity.
- it is ideal to have since globalLockServer
per instance.
- In a 32node deployment however, each server
group is still concentrated towards the
same set of lockers that partipicate during
the write/read phase, unlike previous minio/dsync
implementation - this potentially avoids send
32 requests instead we will still send at max
requests of unique nodes participating in a
write/read phase.
- reduces overall chattiness on smaller setups.
