I'm not sure, if that is related, but looking at the activity LEDs of 
the DB/WAL SSD devices (two SSDs in RAID 1 each) in each host, the 
device in one host is basically permanently active (LEDs constantly 
flickering w/o pause), while on the other host, the device seems almost 
completely inactive (one blink every few seconds). The third host has no 
SSD DB device yet. To me that looks, as one Ceph node is extremely 
active, while the other isn't. That also looks like an imbalance to me.
