Fragmentation in the XFS layer may harm your PVFS throughput and IOs
badly. Check the underlying xfs filesystem fragmentation with

xfs_db -r -c "frag" /dev/whatever

If the FS is badly fragmented (say more than 30%), run

xfs_fsr

(you may need several xfs_fsr runs to defragment entirely your FS).
