I have found that this may be an issue with the Complete Fair Queuing I/O scheduler that was introduced as default in 2.6.18 (when most started observing this performance issue). Reverting back to the old AS scheduler for me seems to have resolved the problem.

To use the AS scheduler and test for yourself, just specify "elevator=as" as a boot option.
