They're both using the 173.14.05 driver from b91. The > Xorg.0.log file was generated after the power was removed and restored > to the box. The Xorg.0.log.old was from a "pkg image-update" and "init > 6", so the power was maintained throughout. So is the behavior on both your systems, the NVIDIA based desktop and the ATI based notebook, that if a simple reboot is done performance is slow but if power is removed performance improves (equivalent to b90)?
If so, can you run intrstat when the desktop is slow to see if any devices are producing excessive interrupts? Also the output of: # echo "::interrupts -d" | mdb -k would be useful to see which interrupts are being shared.
