I've seen something similar to this going from an earlier 2.6 kernel.
Something around .11 or .12 was ok, while something around .18 or so
and up cause huge slowdows for me on my old 233Mhz laptop.  Cause me
to move from Debian Etch to Ubuntu Dapper because it was just plain
unusable.  It took over 24 hours to compile a new kernel!

Sorry that's not much help.  It's just that I (and some of my friends)
have seen newer kernels run horribly on older hardware.
