I did my tests with two 5k-RPM SATA disks connected to a single USB 3.0 port using a JMS562 USB 3.0 to SATA bridge in JBOD mode. According to lsusb -t, the uas module is in use and looking at /sys/block/sdX/queue/nr_requests, command queuing seems to be active. I've discussed my problems with Heinz Mauelshagen yesterday, who was able to reproduce the issue using two SATA disks, connected to two USB 3.0 ports that share the same USB bus. However, he didn't notice any speed penalties if the same disks are connected to different USB buses. So it looks like the problem is USB related...
