Epilog
OK, so I have a window with glance running to watch the internal operations of my dd command. The top few lines of glance are activity bars showing overall system utilization. For hours, disk usage was at 100%. Then I noticed that it dropped to 0. No disk utilization at all. Did my dd finish? Nope. It is still running. Both of my file pointers froze at exactly 34359738368. I allowed this situation to persist for a hour or so, mostly because I was busy with something else. Then I killed the dd command. I am certain it would have "ran" for another 4 days if I have let it. Or another 4 years. glance said that dd was in I/O wait and that (to me) points the finger towards the driver. If a gigabyte is 2^30, then 34359738368 is exactly 32 GB. That is a larger number than will fit into 32 bits. So the kernel, the driver, and dd are all in 64 bit mode. But apparently, the driver bumped into some other limit.

SYNOPSIS
glance-scrubber [options]
DESCRIPTION
glance-scrubber is an utility that cleans up images that have been deleted. The mechanics of this differ depending on the backend store and
pending_deletion options chosen.
Multiple glance-scrubbers can be run in a single deployment, but only one of them may be designated as the 'cleanup_scrubber' in the
glance-scrubber.conf file. The 'cleanup_scrubber' coordinates other glance-scrubbers by maintaining the master queue of images that need to
be removed.
The glance-scubber.conf file also specifies important configuration items such as the time between runs ('wakeup_time' in seconds), length
of time images can be pending before their deletion ('cleanup_scrubber_time' in seconds) as well as registry connectivity options.
glance-scrubber can run as a periodic job or long-running daemon.
