Hm, as a workaround, I managed to destroy the RAID-set and acessed the disks directly.
Does anybody have an idea what causes the poor perfomance on hardware RAID-sets? I saw the same with the ciss driver which is as slow on 5.1 but very fast on 5.99.39 (up to 180MB/s write speed). The changelog tells about "tagged queueing"...
