That sounds similar to my setup, except that my raid-5 is hardware and pretends
to be a scsi device.
Which version of xen are you using? I'm on xen-3.0.2-0.FC5.3, and using kernel
kernel-xen0-2.6.16-1.2122_FC5 and kernel-xenU-2.6.16-1.2122_FC5.

Are you using LVM-backed domUs?
Yes... dom0 manages LVM laid over a RAID-5 array spread over four
300GB SATA disks, and each domU is contained within an LVM logical
volume. Anyways, hdparm -t numbers tend to be very high. However, real
throughput is much lower.
