I did try a balance.  As I had mentioned subsequently, I ended up having
to grow the filesystem to 10x (somewhere between 20 and 50GB) it's data
requirement in order to get that kernel headers .deb to unpack, and
after it unpacked I was successful in shrinking back down to 5G, so it
seems the problem was something worse than just "not ideal" metadata
allocation.

Interesting data point, thanks.
