We've implemented file count quotas in addition to our existing byte
quotas to try to avoid this situation. You can improve some things
(metadata on SSDs, maybe get an accelerator node if Isilon still offers
those) but the fact is that metadata is expensive in terms of CPU (both
client and server)

What is the purpose of your TSM backups? DR? Long term retention for
auditability/sarbox/other regulation?
It may well be that a daily or even more frequent snapshot regime might be the
