[Linux-cluster] DLM Locks and Memory issue

All,

 I've been testing GFS with millions and millions of files and my
system performance degrades as the number of locks increases.  Along
with the number of locks being in the millions, all of my system
memory is used.  After performing a umount and mount of my GFS file
system the locks go back down to zero and all the memory is reclaimed.
 This of course improves my system performance.  Is there a way to
release all locks and memory associated without unmounting my file
system?

Should I try the patch in the bug report?
