Jan, here are the ext4 numbers. It's also doing better now. And I find
the behaviors and hence dd vs. tar numbers are pretty different from XFS.

- XFS like redirtying the inode after writing pages while ext4 not

- ext4 enforces large 128MB write chunk size, while XFS uses the
  adaptive 24-28MB chunk size (close to half disk bandwidth)
