Did you add a secret sauce to 2.5.59-mm2?  10x sequential
write improvement on ext3 for multiple tiobench threads.

Quad P3 Xeon (4GB ram)
8 GB files
4K blocksize
32 threads
Rate = MB/sec
latency in milliseconds

Similar improvement for seq writes for 2, 4, 8, 16, 64, 128, 256 threads.

Sequential reads on ext3 with 2.5.59-mm2 improves around 3x for various 
thread counts.  Below is 32 threads.
