To some degree, OpenAFS will always write slower than standard NFS, because AFS is actually making sure it's not writing crap. NFS will happily write stuff at blazingly fast speeds, not caring whether the data it writes is sane or corrupted.
I'm told that you can tell NFSv3 to do error checking and it slows the write speed WAY down. I've never played with it myself (yet). On the other hand, you should be able to get a bit more speed out of this. I'll echo what Jason said -- look at upping your chunksize flag on afsd. For a system that's writing lots of large files, sending the files over in larger chunks should help. I would start with -10 or -12 and work from there. Good luck.
