Scality object server backend for OpenStack Swift
==============================================

Installation
------------

1. Install the Sproxyd object server:
   ``sudo python setup.py install``

2. Modify your `object-server.conf` to use the new object server:
   ```
[app:object-server]
use = egg:swift_scality_backend#sproxyd_object
```

3. Set the Sproxy host(s) and Sproxy path to connect to in the
   `[app:object-server]` section in the same file. If your system supports it
   (anything running a Linux kernel newer than 2.6.17 does), also make sure to
   enable `splice`, which enhances throughput and lowers CPU utilization:
   ```
[app:object-server]
sproxyd_host = 172.24.4.3:81,172.24.4.4:81
sproxyd_path = /proxy/chord
splice = yes
```
