As I mentioned on the RH bz, it seems barrier-related.

I thought most barrier enhancements/changes were before 2.6.31, though.  Was
this really fast for you on .31?  Lots of lvm barrier changes went into .30.

mounting either the host fs, the loopback file, or both with "nobarrier" avoids
all the cache flushes from the barriers, and it's speedy again.
