here are a quick backup with nexenta, zfs, zfs compression=on, atime=off, backuppc compression=OFF,raidz,1GB ram dedicated, 2CPU dedicate(3Ghz)

note that this is vmware BUT the numbers arent too bad.

This is tar over nfs, rsync wont work because of the file_rsyncp_perl version 0.52 too low of version number.

   File Size/Count Reuse Summary

   Existing files are those already in the pool; new files are those
   added to the pool. Empty files and SMB errors aren't counted in the
   reuse and new counts.

Of course the Comp percent is not being shown, here it is from a 'zfs get compressratio data/backuppc'

   data/backuppc  compressratio  1.60x          -


1.46MB/sec isn't too bad, especially in vmware. I actually think that vmware's terrible networking caused more of a slowdown than the mediocre IO. It is very easy to watch ZFS buffer out the IO slowness, I could see data being written in bursts which really helped bypass the low IO in vmware.

I can't run this on real hardware at the moment, my SATA controller(intel P35 chipset) isn't supported on the opensolaris kernel. I will try to get my hands on an IDE based system.
