In certain cases, I don't see layoutcommit on a file at all even after doing many writes.



Client side operations:

open
write(s)
close


On server side (observed operations):

open
layoutget's 
close


But, I do not see laycommit at all. In terms data written by client it is about 4-5MB.

When does client issue laycommit?

Sandeep
