Strange thing is that I did not have performance problems with luminous,
after upgrading to nautilus and enabling snapshots on a different tree
of the cephfs. Rsync is taking 10 hours more.
There is also another option, degrading performance on the source.
However it is impossible for me to verify this. 
I have increased the mds_cache_memory_limit from 8GB to 16GB, see
what that brings.
