Happens like clockwork for us.  The moment we get alerts saying the
file system has hit 90%, we get a flood of support tickets about
performance.

It happens to a lesser degree on standard CentOS NAS units running XFS
we have around the place.  But again, I see the same sort of thing on
any file system (vendor supplied, self-built, OS and FS agnostic).
And yes, it's measurable (Munin graphs show it off nicely).
