Here's some additional information:

$ uname -r
2.6.38-2-amd64

I use a  minimal gnome desktop (no file indexing service). For testing
purposes I use the command line; cp -r  /var/lib/libvirt/images to be
precise. I copy from one internal disk to another,

I also encounter this problem every time rsnapshot is running. My
system slows down noticeably  and I use top/htop to discover rsnaphot
is running.
