      I would like to find out what the limitation, or optimal range on
      inode
      count for a single folder is in GPFS.  We have several users that
      have
      caused issues with our current files system by adding up to a million

      small files (1 ~ 40k) to a single directory.  This causes issues
      during
      system remount where restarting the system can take excessive amounts
      of
      time.
