Hi Mark,

No, I wasn't familiar with that work. I am in fact comparing speed of recovery 
to maintenance work I did while the cluster was in Jewel; I haven't manually 
done anything to sleep settings, only adjusted max backfills OSD settings. New 
options that introduce arbitrary slowdown to recovery operations to preserve 
client performance would explain what I'm seeing! I'll have a tinker with 
adjusting those values (in my particular case client load on the cluster is 
very low and I don't have to honour any guarantees about client performance - 
getting back into HEALTH_OK asap is preferable).
