[volunteergrid2-l] status report?

[Aaron Drew]

Another problem I've noticed is that, if someone requests a very large file
(e.g. 4GB) from my storage node, it seems to page a lot. I suspect it might
be loading / streaming the 4GB into RAM. Since I run this on my desktop,
this is a pretty big deal.
