Thanks for sharing a great post.<p>Do you think a 512MB bucket might be more optimal compared to a 1GB bucket? 2x less data required to be read when restoring an erasure coded bucket, and 2x quicker restore times, for only a 2x increase in bucket metadata costs? Erasure coded bucket slices (around 85MB per slice assuming 6&#x2F;9 Reed Solomon) should be just right to amortize disk seeks.
