I just got back to trying this today.  Switching to a phy: backend (a
zfs zvol in this case) absolutely worked.  I have to admit to trying it
on a 2.6.40 kernel vs. 2.6.32 last time, so I'm changing multiple
variables (I know, bad analysis!) but I don't have any reason to go back
to 2.6.32 either.

Everything is noticeably peppier too (not just disk - VNC, etc.).  Very
nice.
