I also am having a similar issue. I have a Dell Power Edge 2650 with a PERC 3/Di configured as RAID5 and an XFS root filesystem. I see periodic bursts of slowness with disk IO especially with writes after I did an upgrade from Etch to Lenny. For now I am using the 2.6.18 Etch kernel and performance is consistant.
