Rick's schedstats stuff had some ways to measure latency that seemed to work quite nicely. Hard to simulate exactly mozilla, email, etc, but probably close enough to be far more use than "ooh, it feels faster".
He did a whole paper at OLS ... Rick ... pointer?

There are patches available for schedstats, although I haven't pulled together 2.6.9-rc1 yet. Shouldn't take me but fifteen minutes, I think.
Rafael, what baseline release are you comparing to? I should be able to provide some tools to measure the effect on updatedb directly for both 2.6.9-rc1 and your baseline (so long as it's 2.6-based)
