I had to send one (of 7) member disk for RMA.
I notice that the system is very non responsive. 'top' shows

     PID USER      PR  NI    VIRT    RES    SHR S  %CPU  %MEM     TIME+ COMMAND

kworker/u16:3+flush-9:127

This continues even when there are no user actions (ff, tb closed).

A few days ago it stopped, but today I see that it kept running all night where 
there were
period of inactivity for a few hours.

As another point: a few days ago I received a disk from RMA and the recovery 
went as fast as expected.
I then removed another disk to send for RMA.

Is this expected? Is there anything I can do to improve the situation?

TIA

An observation that may be of value. I notice

$ cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [raid6] [raid5] [raid4]
md127 : active raid6 sde1[4] sdg1[6] sdf1[5] sdd1[7] sdb1[8] sdc1[9]
      58593761280 blocks super 1.2 level 6, 512k chunk, algorithm 2 [7/6] 
[_UUUUUU]
      bitmap: 87/88 pages [348KB], 65536KB chunk

And I usually see the bitmap showing as 0/88 or 1/88, so does this indicate 
that some
housekeeping work is outstanding? Related to the very busy kworker?
