The vm_cache_size_max_bytes metric can be used for determining caches which reach their capacity via the following query:
vm_cache_size_bytes / vm_cache_size_max_bytes > 0.9

lib/{mergeset,storage}: switch from sync.Pool to chan-based pool for inmemoryPart objects
...
This should reduce memory usage on systems with big number of CPU cores,
since every inmemoryPart object occupies at least 64KB of memory and sync.Pool maintains
a separate pool inmemoryPart objects per each CPU core.
Though the new scheme for the pool worsens per-cpu cache locality, this should be amortized
by big sizes of inmemoryPart objects.

CPU and memory profiles show that the pool capacity for inmemoryBlock objects is too small.
This results in the increased load on memory allocation code in Go runtime.

lib/mergeset: switch from sync.Pool to a channel for a pool for inmemoryBlock structs
...
This should reduce memory usage for the pool on systems with big number of CPU cores.
The sync.Pool maintains per-CPU pools, so the total number of objects in the pool
is proportional to the number of available CPU cores. The channel limits the number
of pooled objects by its own capacity. This means smaller number of pooled objects on average.

lib/{mergeset,storage}: reduce the number of fsync calls on data ingestion path on systems with many cpu cores
...
VictoriaMetrics maintains a buffer per CPU core for the ingested data. These buffers are flushed to disk every second.
These buffers are flushed to disk in parallel starting from the commit 56b6b893ce
.
This resulted in increased write disk IO usage on systems with many cpu cores
as described at https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1338#issuecomment-863046999 .
This commit merges the per-CPU buffers into bigger in-memory buffers before flushing them to disk.
This should reduce the rate of fsync syscalls and, consequently, the write disk IO on systems with many CPU cores.
This should help https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1338

The prioritizing could lead to big merge starvation, which could end up in too big number of parts that must be merged into big parts.
Multiple big merges may be initiated after the migration from v1.39.0 or v1.39.1. It is OK - these merges should be finished soon,
which should return CPU and disk IO usage to normal levels.
