buffer_anon is memory consumed by the bufferlist class that hasn't been
explicitly put into a separate mempool category. The question is
where/why are buffers getting pinned in memory. Can you dump the
perfcounters? That might give some hint.
My guess is a leak, or a problem with the ObjectCacher code that is
preventing it from timming older buffers.
How reproducible is the situation? Any idea what workloads trigger it?
Thanks!
