I use 3.0.0 since quite some time. But my setup is different. Since my new ThinkPad T520 with Intel SSD 320 I do not think much about I/O performance problems as thats blazingly fast... I seen vmstat numbers like yours with my T42 and Western Digital 320 IDE laptop drive or my T23 with Hitachi laptop drive. Laptop harddisks aren´t the fastest.
