Did some more testing today. I don't think my patch is helping as much as I thought. I still got the slowdown for significant periods of time. But I'm more convinced that it's the interaction between NetworkManager and dbus-daemon than ever.

My phone got really slow leaving my wifi zone. The network indicator hadn't yet updated to 3G though. 'top' indicated dbus-daemon at 100% again. 'dbus-monitor --system' showed driblets of NetworkManager signals coming through (not rapid fire, so it's not like dbus-daemon is simply operating at max capacity, it's actually in some weird state). But once the indicator showed 3G, my phone immediately was back to normal. (Until I started moving around again and hitting more wifi areas.)

So I definitely think NetworkManager is wigging dbus-daemon out. But I'm not yet sure in which package the bug lies.
