You might be having issues with other software in the VM as well -- ESENT is quite paranoid about its interactions with the storage system so it is normally the first component to notice any problems. We use checksums to make sure the data isn't corrupted, ECC to correct any single-bit flips and measures the I/O completion time to look for hangs. (We are actually planning some more improvements in that area in the future as well).
In general we see slow I/Os caused by driver bugs (most likely in your case) or bad disks (e.g. lots retries or of bad sector remappings).
