Thanks Tom, makes sense then as this is on one controller that came
up last after
bouncing them all.


yeah it eventually synced but it went down an inefficient path that
resulted in 1176 messages from the leader to sync it. Actually that
patch I mentioned above was for a different case and wouldn't help in
this case. I have an idea where we can optimize it to eliminate those
extra messages and make it faster.
