Correct, though (obviously) we're seeing the slownees remotely as well.

Hi,

I've had no previous experience with such issues but here are my 2 cents
IMHO if the slowness is seen locally as well as remotely then i would start thinking about filesystem options, or even consider a different filesystem.
I think that you need to eliminate first the HW issues (raid, disk speed, etc) then look more into fs specific options wich were discussed in several previous emails
