I've tried.  I can get the file to take a hell of a long time to close
with a count as short as 512 64k chunks.  But it eventually completes.
Perhaps the large files would eventually complete too, if I were
patient enough..

I've left you a full trace on freefall in ~gallatin of a 384MB test
(client has 320MB, server has 384MB).

large.gz :	 trace from file creation to server reboot  Server is
		 running kernel from today.

large_reboot.gz: trace after server is rebooted into ~July kernel
		 and the writes complete.
