Ok, I'm not going to be able to replicate the entire test, but I can
at least demonstrate the high number of subdirectories is slowing down
the creation time.  I'm guessing it is either caused by the
subdirectory inodes not being in cache often enough, or increased
log traffic.

Try setting the number of subdirectories to 10.  If this fixes the
reiserfs performance problem, we can look into solutions.
