Hi Adrian,
Let's say you want to create a file and server x was selected. Then you
want to create another file and the cms looks and says well, all things
are roughly equal who should I select? If linger is set to 1 then server x
will be selected. If linger is zero or server x was already selected twice
in a row, then another server would be selected. The cms.sche has no
impact on this behaviour.
We put this in way back and no one uses it as far as I know because it's
really hard to predict the space allocation pattern and people generally
don't like adding extra entropy to the decision making.
