Is that the fs that is slow?

It's almost full. Most filesystems would exhibit really bad
performance when close to full due to fragmentation issue (threshold
vary, but 80-90% full usually means you need to start adding space).
You should free up some space (e.g. add a new disk so it becomes
multi-device, or delete some files) and rebalance/defrag.
