I saw a performance improvement of up to a factor of 7 in favour of 6.0 when I tested concurrent I/O. http://people.freebsd.org/~kris/bsdcan/Filesystem%20Performance.pdf If this is truly what you're seeing, then you're probably hitting some other bottleneck and not actually testing filesystem performance.
