Thanks for the reply.  Above line is the most telling data and so I take
back what I said before, this is likely the cause given it's your home
volume.  It's very full!

Your pool is at 96% capacity and 69% fragmented. The 96% is the biggest
issue, there is (was?) a rule-of-thumb guid with copy-on-write filesystems,
of which ZFS is an example, that you should keep the used capacity below
80%.

In the pool, your one dataset 'alexandria/home', the snapshots are  90.4G
of 332G or 27%, so not the full culprit.  The fact the disk is nearly full
is.

Possible things to do....

Make a backup first!!  or several.

Delete some stuff, clear browser caches, other caches in your user profile.

To clear the fragmentation, copy the data somewhere else, delete it, then
copy it back.
