TODO: Rewrite the thing in #golang to be cool.

I might not be cool, but I did indeed rewrite it in golang. It was quite simple, and a simple benchmark of uploading two million files, balanced across 4 nodes worked perfectly.

hi,

did you remove the perl code? Is the go code faster/robuster?

Just curious, no particular reason.

Yes there seemed little point in keeping both codebases alive in parallel. (Although I guess it might have allowed interesting testing in isolation.)

The golang code is smaller, neater, easier to deploy, as well as faster.
