I'm pretty certain this is in the archives, but you're probably
blocking on disk I/O.  IDE is not your friend.  Tagged command
queueing and a nice array (can elaborate if anyone likes) do
wonders for performance.

It's also possible that bloatware is catching up with you.  Check
"top" and "ps aux" for more info... RSS/RES is the one to watch.
