Well, is your network switched or just using an 10/100Mbps hub ?
as with the hub all your network will go down to 10Mbps to allow your
client to use it.
That may be the first point of slowdown.

I haven't tried yet with reiserfs, but I think it shouldn't be the
problem as it is mounted via NFS, if NFS is working this should be OK.

Maybe you should try the 2.09pre4 or 3.0.0 (when available) ? :(
