400ms? Are you circling the Earth once with every packet? For
reference, west coast of US <-> Europe is less than 200ms.

Ceph is not suitable for a WAN / satellite / etc setups. It assumes
the cluster is co-located, and just honestly is aimed at network
speeds upwards from 1Gbps. Anything else would require completely
different caching and replication mechanisms. You can't maintain cache
coherency across such huge latencies, without making the user
experience slow (as you observed).

Object removal is done in the background. Give it some time, and good
networking, and you should get the free space back.
