Paul Dagnelie c81f1790e2 Metaslab max_size should be persisted while unloaded ... When we unload metaslabs today in ZFS, the cached max_size value is discarded. We instead use the histogram to determine whether or not we think we can satisfy an allocation from the metaslab. This can result in situations where, if we're doing I/Os of a size not aligned to a histogram bucket, a metaslab is loaded even though it cannot satisfy the allocation we think it can. For example, a metaslab with 16 entries in the 16k-32k bucket may have entirely 16kB entries. If we try to allocate a 24kB buffer, we will load that metaslab because we think it should be able to handle the allocation. Doing so is expensive in CPU time, disk reads, and average IO latency. This is exacerbated if the write being attempted is a sync write. This change makes ZFS cache the max_size after the metaslab is unloaded. If we ever get a free (or a coalesced group of frees) larger than the max_size, we will update it. Otherwise, we leave it as is. When attempting to allocate, we use the max_size as a lower bound, and respect it unless we are in try_hard. However, we do age the max_size out at some point, since we expect the actual max_size to increase as we do more frees. A more sophisticated algorithm here might be helpful, but this works reasonably well.
