Here's our hardware break down.The logvg on the new hardware is 30MB/s slower (170 MB/s vs 200 MB/s ) than the logvg on the older hardware which was an immediately interesting difference but we have yet to be able to create a test scenario that successfully implicates this slower log speed in our problems. That is something we are actively working on. Old server hardware: Manufacturer: Dell Inc.

Right - It is probably worth running 'pg_test_fsync' on the two logvg's and comparing the results. This will tell you if the commit latency is similar or not on the two disk systems.
One other difference that springs immediately to mind is that datavg is an 18 disk RAID 6 on the old system and a 20 disk RAID 60 on the new one...so you have about 1/2 the io performance right there.
