Public bug reported:

The problem is that when I copy files to the disk (above to ~50MB and tested 
from konsole or dolphin), the system becomes slow and unusable until the task 
is complete. Also, copying the file takes a long time to complete. Once the 
copy is finished, everything is normal again.
I have also noticed that with other tasks that require the use of the disk you 
get a bad system performance, for example when installing programs.
I installed an earlier version of Karmic kernel (2.6.31-11.36) and these 
problems do not happen, everything works fine with it.

I have installed Kubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala 64 bits (upgraded from 9.04
Jaunty), ext3 filesystem.
