Transfer speeds drop to near-zero when using "Move storage"

I've had this issue for a long time (ever since I started using Deluge), but I never bothered to report it 'cause I always thought it would be fixed in the next version. My problem is that when I use Move storage to move downloaded stuff from one partition to another, the up- and download speed of all torrents instantly drop to zero (actually download speed remains at around 20kb/s but uploads completely stall). Once the moving has finished (which I have no way of checking except from running "dstat" on my file server to see when disk activity stops) the speed returns to normal.
Does anyone else experience this issue or is it only me? Is there something I can do about it?
I'm running the Deluge daemon on my file server, it has two LVM-volumes, one for newly downloaded stuff and one for archived stuff. Could this have anything to do with it?

This is just a consequence of moving the file.. libtorrent won't read the file until the operation has completed and thus your uploading will stop.

I can understand that libtorrent cannot seed the torrents which files I'm moving, but the problem is that ALL torrents stop, not just the ones I'm moving. Last night I started moving about 25 GB of stuff which took at least an hour to complete. I had to use Transmission on my local machine to be able to download stuff in the mean time, which is kinda gay.
