Is there a way to see how much of the RAM cache for a file system is actually containing data waiting to be flushed?
I haven't seen you ask about your problem on the XFS list? As before, I'd suggest that is the best place to find a solution and also to answer questions like this.
There is a discussion going on at the moment about delays and flushing.
Indeed I have not. Instead I have demonstrated that it is independent of the file system as the same behavior happens with ext4. If the problem was limited to xfs, then I think they could help.
