 I uploaded a 7.7 MiB video as an MDMF file using the cloud backend (as of
 [https://github.com/davidsarah/tahoe-
 lafs/commit/022796fb7813c2f42d668a0ee3de9abae869deb5 1819-cloud-
 merge/022796fb]), and then downloaded it. From {{{flogtool tail}}}ing the
 storage server, I saw that it was reading the same chunks multiple times
 during the download. That suggests that the chunk cache is not operating
 well enough.

 The file was being downloaded by playing it as a video in Chromium; I
 don't think that makes a difference.
