28.466s sync time?! That's horrifying. At this point, I want to say the
increase in effective_cache_size or shared_buffers triggered the planner
to change one of your plans significantly enough it's doing a ton more
disk IO and starving out your writes. Except you said you changed it
back and it's still misbehaving.
This also reminds me somewhat of an issue Greg mentioned a while back
with xlog storms in 9.0 databases. I can't recall how he usually "fixed"
these, though.
