I'd propose to doublecheck the config-generation so as to make sure that
in its output, the servicegroups are *still* the only difference. Could
you run a "diff" between the object.cache files of the two cases and
verify that?

check_ping and check_snmp are special in that they rely on external
executables to do the low-down work, so they have to do extra exec()s.
(check_procs would be yet another.) You might want to replace check_ping
by check_icmp, just to see what happens ...

There *have* been some noncompatible changes between 2.x and 3.x config
syntax, so ... (Support of backslash escapes was IIRC one of them, just
to name an example.)
