I would look at what size IOs you are doing in each case.
I have been playing with a T5240 and got 400Mb/s read and 200Mb/s write speeds
with iozone throughput tests on a 6 disk mirror pool, so the box and ZFS can
certainly push data around - but that was using 128k blocks.

I'm going to use Jorg's 'star' to simulate some sequential backup workloads,
using different blocksizes and see what the system do.
I'll save some output and post for people that might match the same config, now
or in the future.
To be clear though: (currently)

Yes. Which is exactly what I was saying. The tar data might be more
compressible than the DB, thus be faster. Shall I draw you a picture, or
are you too busy shilling for star at every available opportunity?
