Out of curiosity, how would CephFS being more POSIX compliant cause
this much delay in this situation? I'd understand if it would maybe
take up to a second or maybe two, but almost fifteen minutes and then
suddenly /all/ servers recover at the same time?

Would this situation exist because we have so many open filehandles per
server? Or could it also appear in a simpler "two servers share a
CephFS" setup?

I'm so curious to find out what /causes/ this.
"Closer to POSIX sematics" doesn't cut it for me in this case.
Not with the symptoms we're seeing.

As far as i understood, there's not much to see on the MDS servers when
this issue pops op. E.g. no slow ops logged during this event.
