With the amount of data I reported and number of files I just have 6% of inodes 
occupied so I don't think that is really a problem, do you use XFS for any 
special purpose besides dynamic inode creation? What do you think about 
recovery and maintenance tools for XFS. And least but not lest don't you have a 
bigger processor overhead with XFS?

Usually people tend to say processor is not important while backing up but from 
what I've seen if you have like 8 or more hosts backing up data the processor 
and memory are stressed up. if you have to manage a FS with a large processor 
demand can't this be a bottleneck?
