Were your tests with or without the latest /dev/urandom fixes? This
one in particular:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.21.y.git;a=commitdiff;h=374f167dfb97c1785515a0c41e32a66b414859a8

With. I just tried 2.6.11 (the oldest that will boot) on the Pentium IV box and got 3.7 MB/s, so if it's a regression it's been around for a while.
