Changing an internal logsize is really not supported - the only
"unofficial" way to do it is to convert to an external log (tricky!),
see Steve's emails from last week. External logs can be grown with
xfs_growfs, assuming there's space to grow into.
Adding "logbufs=4" or "logbufs=8" as a mount option may help somewhat if
there's a lot of log traffic.
Although, I'm not sure offhand why linking in particular should be
slow...
