Interesting. I have no idea why this happens and would be interested in 
investigation too.

As a quick help, maybe using allocsize=1G in the xfs mount options would 
help?

How many AGs does the filesystem have? 
And which version of mkfs.xfs do you use?
Newer xfsprogs create the disk with 4 AGs per default, maybe that 
influences the allocation order?
