They are stored in XFS, until there are more than a handful, after which 
point they get stored in leveldb.  But they are *also* stored in every pg 
log event that modifies the object, so you should definitely not (ab)use 
xattrs the way you would use omap and expect the system to behave/perform!
They are meant to be small and few.
