The problem still persists and now I can provide some profiling info, 
made by HWPMC.

The samples were collected from totally equal machines, the only 
difference is the OS (FreeBSD 6-STABLE and FreeBSD 7-STABLE, amd64).

Here is FreeBSD/amd64 6-STABLE (compiled yesterday):
granularity: each sample hit covers 4 byte(s) for 0.00% of 158108.00 seconds

At first glimpse it seems that there is a lot more time spent in 
_mtx_lock_sleep in FreeBSD 7 than in FreeBSD 6...
