You keep describing this as ugly but it sounds like a really good situation to
me. The higher that percentage the better your cache hit ratio is.
If your entire buffer cache is mostly filled with dirty buffers with high
usage counts, you are in for a long wait when you need new buffers
allocated and your next checkpoint is going to be traumatic. That's all
I'm suggesting is a problem with that situation.
