Monumentally slow directory performance.

vfs.ufs.dirhash_minsize: 2560
vfs.ufs.dirhash_maxmem: 4194304
vfs.ufs.dirhash_mem: 448261
vfs.ufs.dirhash_docheck: 0
vfs.vmiodirenable: 1

Seems fine to me.  I'm going to do some more experimenting off of the raid
array, maybe there's something there with the 3ware driver causing the problem.
