On my system the latest kodi upload to experimental (2:17.1~rc1+dfsg1-1)
fixed the slow playback issues which are still reproducible with 2:17.0+dfsg1-3
which shows this is a kodi bug.

Does the version in experimental work for you, too?

PS: Thanks for the private perf data, it points at kodi, too.
