Our cyrus in production have one diff from stock cyrus, I almost forgot:
we tweaked the directory hash functions, we use a 2 level deep hash, and
that can make a lot of a diferente specially comparing FS's.
We tweaked our hash function specially to guarantee that our users
directories will in the vast majority of the cases will occupy only one
