I've already copied the ~16TB of data from the btrfs filesystem to an XFS
filesystem. I do not see the performance variability under xfs that I see
under btrfs.

Actually, I decided to move to xfs, at least for now. Apparently not many
people are using btrfs with filesystems >15TB, so it seems I'm in more-or-less
uncharted territory, at least according to the responses I've gotten when
looking into this issue.
