Ignore my last reply. I read the thread [Re: XFS Syncd]("http://oss.sgi.com/archives/xfs/2015-06/msg00111.html"), and found that might be okay. The call xfs_ail_push is almost INODE rather than BUF (1579 vs 99). Our ceph is dedicated to S3 service, and the write is small. So, where are so many INODE changes come from? How can I decrease it?
