I had this in but then it seemed to me that all socket operations are also
visible without it. Here they are:

http://uaf-2.t2.ucsd.edu/~matevz/xrd/ls-fun/3.3.3-slc5--3.3.3-slc5.clogstrace-f

http://uaf-2.t2.ucsd.edu/~matevz/xrd/ls-fun/3.3.3-slc5--master-f19.clogstrace-f
this is the one with connection timeout and goes on forever so it's truncated
after a couple of failures.

I don't know ... we are still running hadoop-0.20 on UCSD though.
