3878	Potential denial of service attack by rogue servers	itamarst		"* Malicious server SN joins grid G
* Client C begins to upload shares R[1..N] to storage servers S[1..N]
* SN sees upload of share RN to storage index I
* SN immediately calls allocate_buckets on S[1..N-1] for shares R[1..N] (but doesn't bother to upload anything)
* For any server/share combination where SN gets there first, C is denied the ability to perform an upload. Also, to C, it looks like the share has already been uploaded so no further work is required on its part.
