Keep in mind that drives have a faster data transfer rate at the outer-edge than they do at the inner edge, so if you've got all 3 filesystems sitting on that array at the same time it's not a fair test. I heard numbers on the impact of this a *long* time ago and I think it was in the 10% range, but I could be remembering wrong.
You'll need to drop each filesystem and create the next one to get a fair comparison.
