  When Cinder volume service creates a volume from an image, it will
  download an image from Glance to a cinder-volume unit (to be precise,
  when CoW is not available by the backend between Glance and Cinder).
  
  The image fetch speed is not super fast as of today:

  By running a profiler, it looks like serious_integrity_iter
  (glanceclient/common/utils.py) is consuming a lot of CPU cycles on the
  client side (in this case the cinder-volume unit).
  
  Image caching can overcome this kind of challenges but this report is for 
when we need to download images (new images, updated images, etc.).

  [Impact]
  
- TBD
+ This issue causes images to be download much slower than they should,
+ causing VM creation to potentially time out if the image is too big and
+ takes too long. The fix proposed greatly improves performance and
+ prevents timeouts in most cases where it would timeout without the fix.
