If you were unable to test from source previously, there is a 3.6.0-rc1 available now that you can use to test environment slow down issues.
You can obtain it from the pre-release repos as documented here: http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/puppetlabs_package_repositories.html#enabling-the-prerelease-repos Please see Eric's 3.6.0-rc1 announcement for more details.
