> Reimplement vdu and the disklimit script in python, such that it can be
> tightly integrated with nodemanager. The main goal is to speed boot up
> of a node, as it currently takes on the order of 10 minutes or so for
> disklimit/vdu to complete.
> 
> The requirements would include:
> 
> - cache vdlimit values upon shutdown so they can be reused upon reboot
> - make vdu operations concurrent rather than serial
> - integrate vdlimit vserver syscall into python C object
