I recently updated my stable OpenELEC 5.0.8 build to the latest stable 6.0.3 (Kodi Isengard) release and found that I'm experiencing very poor playback with omxplayer. Movies which played back flawlessly before are now stuttering and freezing like crazy. I even tried MMAL acceleration, which had slightly different performance, but still ultimately unwatchable due to stuttering/freezing.
I even tried the latest stable LibreElec 7.0 - which contains Kodi 16.1, but had the same results.
The below log is a sample playback of a session where I attempt to watch an h264 movie on said LibreElec 7.0:

This is all with an overclocked Raspberry Pi 2. The video file in question is streamed from my NAS, but gets a good 9-10 MB/sec transfer rate, so I don't believe the network connection is the culprit.
If there is anything else I can provide that would be useful, please let me know and I'd be more than happy to help.
