This sounds very much like a problem I had before switching JRE's.  This 
version has been known to work with Ubuntu 10.10, Ubuntu 10.10, Linux it 
2.6.35-32-generic #67-Ubuntu SMP Mon Mar 5 19:39:49 UTC 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux:

java version "1.6.0_21"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_21-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 17.0-b16, mixed mode)

Tim Coalson believed the problem was somehow related to a cache size.  Once it 
reached that cache size, then java performance plummeted, as you saw.  
Switching JRE's fixed the problem, and I don't have a non-java TFCE version I 
can send you.
