The performance here looks like the old jmicron based ssds that had absolutely abysmal performance - the intel x25s do not suffer like this. The x25's however suffer from the power durability Greg has mentioned. (And they will eventually need to be security erase'd to restore performance - you'll start getting major write stalls). Looks like you were on the cusp of stalling here.
