Mind checking out the current prerelease-diff? It fixes this, and cleans
up some remaining things (now that we don't task-switch into bdflush for
all our cleanup, 'nrefill' should really be much lower to get smoother
behavior).

Hi Linus,
I've noticed you changed bdflush to do synchronous IO on page_launder().
That seems to be a performance problem, since kflushd will have to wait
for dirty buffers to get synced instead looping on the inactive dirty
list more often.
Here is a patch to change this.
