In prior testing I completely removed PostgreSQL from the equation by creating a 16GB random file on the pertinent ZFS filesystem and reading after reboot and later after the performance degradation hits.  Read performance goes from ~865MB/s with 95-100% busy in gstat down to ~61MB/s with ~10% busy.

It's not Postgres.

Can you check that autovacuum is not involved in a lock storm?
Autovacuums workers start to work but a higher level lock is acquired by other process/transaction stopping autovacuum workers continuously, making autovacuum useless (but trying continually to clean).

Also, you're comparing Postgresql 9.1 with 9.5, are you using the same conf file? Did you upgrade it (conf file) to 9.5?
