On Debian testing, using all Debian-supplied packages except for Couch itself, I do not see any performance regression. This is on spinning platters, 24GB RAM, 4x Opteron processors split across a few vservers, of which only one is running the couch test. Because Jan's test case relies on bash and ruby, I've not been able to run it on Windows, but I could attempt to run rnewson's approach via a CMD/PowerShell script if desired. IMO signs point to this being something OSX specific but it's just speculation at this point.
