bad news: I've lost my five spindle raid-5 volume, because I have
to put two drives to another box. The result using a 3 spindle raid-5
(-current kernel; 3 days old)

opti% dd if=/dev/zero of=test.dd bs=128k count=20000
20000+0 records in
20000+0 records out
2621440000 bytes transferred in 62.211180 secs (42137764 bytes/sec)

The performance seems pretty normal to me.
