Neil has a patch for the bad speed.
What does the patch do?
In the mean time, do this (or better to set it to 30, for instance):
# Set minimum and maximum raid rebuild speed to 60MB/s.
echo "Setting minimum and maximum resync speed to 60 MiB/s..."
echo 60000 > /sys/block/md0/md/sync_speed_min
echo 60000 > /sys/block/md0/md/sync_speed_max
sync_speed_max defaults to 200000 on this box already.
I tried a binary search of values between the default (1000)
and 60000 which resulted in some pretty weird behavior:
at values below 26000 the rate (also confirmed via dstat output) stayed
low. 2-3MB/s. At 26000 and up, the value jumped more or less instantly
to 70-74MB/s. What makes 26000 special? If I set the value to 20000 why
do I still get 2-3MB/s actual?

You want to use sync_speed_min.
