I've now upgraded to Maverick and the bug is still present. This seems
fairly critical, if only for people with this hardware config. Can
anyone on ubuntu's kernel team provide some context regarding the
addition of kslowd, links to upstream threads, etc?

Here are other reports of usage spikes with kslowd:

 * https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=105113
 * http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-kernel/2010/6/16/4583805/thread
 * https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/595764
 * https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/662946

I'm now running the natty kernel (currently 2.6.36-1 generic) and the
hiccups are gone
