That will be whilst the inode cache was filling, I suspect.

Hmmm...  Can you get me a dump of /proc/fs/fscache/stats to look at?

The "Objects:" and "Relinqs:" lines are the most interesting.  On the first
line avl=N shows the number of objects that are in the "available" state -
ie. are live for caching.

Also, can you do:

	df -i /path/to/cache/partition

to get the number of inodes available and used.
