Looks like I'm hitting nearly the same speed situation. I backed up
7932MiB in 2460 seconds (I got impatient...) which comes out to about
3-4MiB/s.
Since tar behaves the same way, I think I'm going to play around with
various record sizes when reading from LVM. Something in the blokc
layer is shooting my transfer rates.
