I am failing to find a reference to the paper, but I recall that the 1 
localized write to HDFS for MR applications isn't enormously beneficial. Then 
again it does save a lot of network traffic, especially for triplication.

As more people start looking at the Object Class handler mechanism, I could see 
it being desirable to stick data into objects (grab later via rendezvous) 
rather than return data to the rados_exec caller. Making that efficient would 
be important.

Could you piggyback on the recovery logic to accomplish this? Say, write 2 
objects as normal, and 1 local "miss placed" object, letting RADOS 
asynchronously move that object to its intended location.
