What happens if the log is very small and there are hundreds of CPUs?
Can we end up on this slow path on a regular basis even if the amount of
space used is not that large?

Granted I can't think of a good way out of that, since I suspect that if
you do that you're already going to be hurting in 5 other places anyway.
That said ... I /do/ keep getting bugs from people with tiny logs on big
iron.  Some day I'll (ha!) stomp out all the bugs that are "NO do not
let your deployment system growfs 10000x, this is not ext4"...

Is moving this really necessary?
