I wasn't able to resolve this in reasonable time. Part of the issue is
that we're dealing with files within about 100k directories. I'll
attempt to get the fragmentation numbers overnight.
I suspect the regularly listed set of files on this fs exceeds the inode
cache. Where can I determine the cache misses and tune the file system?
Best,
Jesse
