Re: Swift slow write performance
Both Metadata.update() and container_update() should apply on all replicas, and metadata.update() will write xattrs, and container_update() will write to sqlite db files. Surprisingly to see so long time to update both.

Modified code is here: http://paste.openstack.org/show/3899/ (original: https://github.com/openstack/swift/blob/master/swift/obj/server.py#L530). Basically, I added some self.logger.debug() with timestamp in few places.
