> The /disk5 is a frequent accessed xfs filesystem by the ERP system. The disk usage increased from 53% to 76-78%. But only the disk usage, the size of the files are completely the same.

Is it possible that this is caused by the aggressive pre-allocation?
There is a mount option (allocsize, I think) that allows you to
override this behavior.
