Hi,

I got a problem when I do a 512-compute node scale test.
There are 15351 input files for this computation, and there are 8 sites.
The question is: when I start swift, are all 15351 input files be copied 
to each of the 8 sites?

By by test, it is yes. Does swift has an option so that only on demand 
input files are copied?

best wishes
