big volumes only work reliable with ssd_spread

Hello,

since around two or three years i'm using btrfs for incremental VM backups.

some data:
- volume size 60TB
- around 2000 subvolumes
- each differential backup stacks on top of a subvolume
- compress-force=zstd
- space_cache=v2
- no quote / qgroup

this works fine since Kernel 4.14 except that i need ssd_spread as an
option. If i do not use ssd_spread i always end up with very slow
performance and a single kworker process using 100% CPU after some days.

With ssd_spread those boxes run fine since around 6 month. Is this
something expected? I haven't found any hint regarding such an impact.

Thanks!

Greets,
Stefan
