A simple ls -l takes "ages" on XFS while ext4 lists a directory
immediately. According to our findings regarding XFS this seems to be
"normal" behavior.

pool name       category                 KB      objects
data            -                       3240   2265521646
document_root   -                     577364        10150
images          -                96197462245   2256616709
metadata        -                    1150105     35903724
queue           -                  542967346       173865
raw             -                36875247450     13095410

total of 4736 pgs, 6 pools, 124 TB data, 4359 Mobjects

What would you like to see?
tree? du per Directory?

As you can see we have one data-object in pool "data" per file saved
somewhere else. I'm not sure what's this related to, but maybe this is a
must by cephfs.
