There hasn't been - and I forgot about it!

It wouldn't be hard to do but its difficult to do 'right' at the moment.

Look in store_dir.c for inspiration. You want to modify
storeDirSelectSwapDirLeastLoad or storeDirSelectSwapDirRoundRobin depending
on what you use.

If I remember right the swapout selection is done at object creation time.
If selection fails there it won't be swapped out at all. It'd be nice for
this to change (if it hasn't already!)
