​I use Proxmox "stock standard".  v3.3-5

Linux s1 2.6.32-34-pve #1 SMP Fri Dec 19 07:42:04 CET 2014 x86_64 GNU/Linux
ceph version 0.80.8
​
I mount the filesystem fuse.ceph in fstab so I guess I'm not using the the
kernel client?

I'm in the process of migrating the installations in VZ containers to full
KVM machines so that I'm not stuck on the 2.6 kernel anymore.  Hopefully
that will sort out the troubles I'm having.

​I actually checked by system.  The three Debian machines are running XFS,
but the Ubuntu machine (which has a much newer kernel) has btrfs formatted
drives​

​I'll report back once I have moved to a newer kernel.
