○ The makeup of the data. Snapshots which contain many small files result in a more randomized access pattern and
take longer to expire and consume more system resources. Snapshots with large files being reclaimed result in a more
sequential access pattern and consume less system resources.
○ Potential inode imbalance between file system domains. If there are FluidFS File System Domains which contain a
disproportionately larger number of inodes than other File System Domains, the snapshot takes longer to expire, as the
reclaimer process could be bottlenecked on one File System Domain.
