suddenly slow writes on XFS Filesystem

[Stefan Priebe <s.priebe@profihost.ag>]

Hi,

since a few days i've experienced a really slow fs on one of our backup 
systems.

I'm not sure whether this is XFS related or related to the Controller / 
Disks.

It is a raid 10 of 20 SATA Disks and i can only write to them with about 
700kb/s while doing random i/o. I tried vanilla Kernel 3.0.30 and 3.3.4 
- no difference. Writing to another partition on another xfs array works 
fine.

Details:
#~ df -h
/dev/sdb1             4,6T  4,4T  207G  96% /mnt

#~ df -i
/dev/sdb1            4875737052 4659318044 216419008  96% /mnt

#~ xfs_db -c frag -r /dev/sdb1

rw,noatime,nodiratime,attr2,nobarrier,logbufs=8,logbsize=256k,sunit=512,swidth=10240,prjquota

Any ideas?
