So the logs "advertise" that log recovery is done. However, "ghost" disk
usage continues to increase until the disks are full, and this can only
be fixed first by mounting the filesystem read-write using a rescue
system, which partially recovers free space, and then by running
xfs_repair which recovers the rest.

Out of curiosity, how much space is reclaimed by the rescue mount, and how much by the repair?

What is the output of repair when you run it?  That may offer some clues.

Thanks,
