 Deletes / frees are lower priority than standard writes / reads so its
 quite possible in the scenario you describe that you could run out of space.
 
 Could you please confirm the exact behaviour by allow mv to process a
 number of files, before suspending and seeing if the free space is correct
 for the current progress after waiting for the pool to sync all outstanding
 requests.
 
     Regards
     Steve
