I posted the results of bonnie++ tests two days ago. (fbsd2.txt and obsd.txt
at the bottom)

http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2004-October/040567.html

also I did copies of large mpeg files (sequential read) which were a
real pain to process because disks were very slow (as slow as dd tests).

I will do all tests that you need to demostrate the problem, just tell
me which test you want to do.

Now, I'm waiting to Søren. He is the one who can find a bug like this.

Regards.
