Just curious:
* How many subvolumes/snapshots are you removing, and what's the
complexity level (like, how many other subvolumes/snapshots reference
the same data extents?)
* Do you see a lot of cpu usage, or mainly a lot of disk I/O? If it's
disk IO, is it mainly random read IO, or is it a lot of write traffic?
* What mount options are you running with (from /proc/mounts)?
