That's good to know, thanks for the explanation.
Fortunately we are in the process of cluster redesign and we can definitely fix that scenario.

This is not a Ceph-specific thing -- it can also affect similar
systems like Lustre.

The classic case is when under some memory pressure, the kernel tries
to free memory by flushing the client's page cache, but doing the
flush means allocating more memory on the server, making the memory
pressure worse, until the whole thing just seizes up.
