I'd suggest you install and run "dstat" and look for whether the CPU
is in wait a lot - this would indicate some sort of I'O related issue.

Ooops, I spoke too soon. First run on my test suite after booting
to 2.6.15-23-686 ran fine. Second run was slow again.
I do notice that when things are running slow, top shows these two
processes at the top:
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
9 root 10 -5 0 0 0 S 2.7 0.0 0:07.39 kblockd/0
8227 root 26 10 1788 732 504 R 2.3 0.1 0:06.15 updatedb
I don't think I should be seeing those at the top.
More investigation needed.

Never argue with stupid people. They'll just drag you down to
their level and beat you with experience
