I'd be curious to see what happens if you turn off synchronous logging.

syslogd definitely behaves better. It also decreases boot time, though this is not immediately evident since kmodule took longer this time. I've observed this with kudzu probes before.
You running FC3 stock or updated? (There's a 3-4 second+ delay in kmodule fixed in the update...)
