Hi all, I'm seeing some issues with xrootd in CMSSW jobs that are causing severe performance issues. See below for a snippet from the client and relevant server. It seems that the client is trying to end a previously terminated security session and, after this happens the first time, I always get these "Timeout or error waiting on outstanding blocks". This happens about every second of a multi-hour job, making the log file a touch verbose. In this case, the client was talking to red-gridftp9. I tried a few test transfers, and the server is otherwise responsive (although by no means idle, xrootd is exporting about 4Gbps today). Any ideas? I've only seen these timeout issues when there's the server error. My search has not been exhaustive, so it could just be a coincidence.
