One of the perpetual scaling problems XFS has is indexing it's incore
inodes. We currently uses hashes and the default hash sizes chosen can
only ever be a tradeoff between memory consumption and the maximum
realistic size of the cache.
As a result, anyone who has millions of inodes cached on a filesystem
needs to tunes the size of the cache via the ihashsize mount option to
allow decent scalability with inode cache operations.
A further problem is the separate inode cluster hash, whose size is based
on the ihashsize but is smaller, and so under certain conditions (sparse
cluster cache population) this can become a limitation long before the
inode hash is causing issues.
The following patchset removes the inode hash and cluster hash and
replaces them with radix trees to avoid the scalability limitations of the
hashes. It also reduces the size of the inodes by 3 pointers....

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
