The fastest solution is to format the filesystem, but this is not
always possible. If you can remove al files in the directory, the
fastest I/O friendly command could be:

ionice -c 3 rm -rf /directory


thanks ,-)
tried that as well. the problem is, that it still completely locks I/O-access to the disk (only this lvm to be exact) from time to time while deleting. the only work around that seems to work is deleting each file separately in a loop and add very short sleep (eg. for i in $(find subdir/ -type f); do rm -f $i $$ sleep 0.02; done ).
that now takes forever, but at least the DRBD-device doesn't block anymore.
