Do you have scrubs enabled? Which if any non-default config options do you have 
set? Any undersized or degraded or backfilling PGs?

Which Ceph release? Do you have a sizable fraction of small files?  If you’re 
running Squid or earlier or don’t have EC optimizations enabled, even a tiny 
file will allocate a multiple of 11*16=176 KB. An 129KB file will consume 
352KB, etc. If I understand those layout options correctly.  

If that’s what’s going on, going to Tentacle with EC optimizations would gain 
you some efficiency for files newly [re]written.  You could also migrate small 
files to a replicated pool.
