Machine IO slowing over time

I have a machine that the IO throughput is getting slower steadily over
time.  the hdparm -t shows 180MB/sec on all of the drives which is not
impressive, but isn't terrible for spinning rust.   I see nothing
failing in the SMART data.  RAID resync is not happening right now.

I am running LVM on top of 2 RAID1 pairs.

What else should I be checking?
