Note that the responses where all from just one user, so not exactly a br=
oad feedback,
and their setup had almost no IO pressure going on, so rather a different=
 issue (for
which we have an idea in the pipeline).

FWIW, I just moved that PBS version to no-subscription, so it wouldn't be=
 testing
anymore.

I'll also ping this thread once the stop gap fix for the other issue, tha=
t we suspect
dea is hitting, is available in a packaged version; it'd just be interest=
ing to know
if the general movement of IO operations to separate threads would have h=
elped in your
big and (relatively) high IO pressure setup.
