FWIW, on my mylex controller w/ raid 5 I'm getting:

# dd if=/dev/da0s1g of=/dev/null bs=1m count=100
100+0 records in
100+0 records out
104857600 bytes transferred in 3.707196 secs (28284882 bytes/sec)


and my dell perc3/dc (raid 5) is getting:

# dd if=/dev/amrd0s2e of=/dev/null bs=1m count=100
100+0 records in
100+0 records out
104857600 bytes transferred in 2.133522 secs (49147653 bytes/sec)
