I think XFS is the way to go if you need fast I/O. Use large blocks.
SGI invented XFS just for this purpose, performance. Still 32MB/Sec
is about the most you can expect on a single drive setup.
I've got a SATA drive in this iMac and I get about 32MB/Sec max.
Mac OS X is BSD UNIX based. Hate to say it but you are on the
borderline.
