> I've seen this bug a few times, but finally got to the bottom of it. The 
> VerificationTool will get to the end, but not exit. The reason is that at 
> least one log has still not yet been created.
> * The client will be blocked asking the metadataquorum to create a log
> * The metadata leader will have tons of threads blocked on the writeLock
> What I just found today was an exception, logged to stderr (not stdout), that 
> was thrown when the group create failed.
> However, we don't catch and re-throw this exception on group create failure, 
> but proceed then to try to send a message to the group which failed to be 
> created.
> We must catch this failure, try to clean up, and propagate the original 
> createLog exception back to the client.
