Python Swift client ConnectionError: [Errno 9] File descriptor was closed in another greenlet

[Ashish Hunnargikar]

I'm seeing the following exception about 10% of the time when load testing a private Docker registry instance which is relying on the Python-swiftclient v2.2.0 on Ubuntu 14.04 to upload chunked image layers to Swift storage. Any help in resolving this error would be much appreciated.

ClientException: put_object('community-registry', 'registry/images/3f4e063c79399251dafe66c85da9a17eb735fb3f6281a9278033ad6cb5822c70/layer', ...) failure and no ability to reset contents for reupload.

Thanks!
