With btrfs the result approaches 3.5GB/s. When using mdadm+xfs the
result reaches 6gb/s, which is the expected value when compared with

mdadm with what chunk (strip) size? The default for mdadm is 512KiB.
On Btrfs it's fixed at 64KiB. While testing with 64KiB chunk with XFS
on md RAID might improve its performance relative to Btrfs, at least
it's a more apples to apples comparison.

I have a feeling that XFS will still win this. It is one of the slower filesystems for Linux, but it still beats BTRFS senseless when it comes to performance as of right now.
