This has evidently to do with tag pressure. I've looked for a way to easily reduce the number of tags online, so as to put your system in the bad spot deterministically. But at no avail. Does anyone know a way to do it?
Isn't this a case for block device queue_depth? IIRC, the amount of tags is derived from it.
