Hi all,

Wondering if my log being just under 2GB is a bad idea.

Noticing flush-253:2/kcopyd which is my XFS file system getting really high load avg and wait times via top).

Doing a simple rsync over NFS and after a bit, the system gets to a load of 24.... yikes...

Upon killing the rsync, I am seeing loads going down to sub 1 after about 10 min. I have repeated this to verify 10 min.
