Wouldn't be the first time the kernel guys broke something :-(
I think a complaint to your kernel supplier is in order.
In a coincidence, the first item in the changelog for this week's
Fedora kernel update is:
* Fri Sep 25 2009 Chuck Ebbert <cebb...@redhat.com> 2.6.30.8-64
- Fix serious CFQ performance regression.
This is surely not the exact same issue you are seeing, but it does
illustrate that performance regressions in the kernel aren't
unheard-of.
