Andrew,

I reran DBT-2 to with ext2 and ext3 (in case you were still interested)
on my 4-way Xeon system with 60+ drives:

Aside from the from the drop you're already aware of since 2.6.3, it
looks like DBT-2 takes another smaller hit after 2.6.5-rc3-mm2. Here's
a brief summary from the link above:

Linux 2.6.5-rc3-mm4 Metric (bigger is better)
ext2 1570
ext3 1528

Linux 2.6.5-rc3-mm3 Metric (bigger is better)
ext2 1555
ext3 1552

Linux 2.6.5-rc3-mm2 Metric (bigger is better)
ext2 1637
ext3 1605

Linux 2.6.3 Metric (bigger is better)
ext2 2292
ext3 2080
