Slow speed performance on following freebsd install of FreeBSD 9.2

Hi guys!

I met for the first time with this problem. After a fresh install of FreeBSD 9.2 the system works very slowly. For example if I type ls or man pf the commands hangs for a while.

Here is the output of dmesg:

All of this would suggest something going wrong with your storage setup. I remember seeing a discussion in the mailing list recent regarding tuning LSI logic setups with particular firmware revisions. However, if you are getting those errors than performance tuning may not even be an option yet. Can you describe your storage?
