Because you have multiple CPUs?
So 1/4 of a quad core q6600 cannot achieve higher rates of I/O due to the
parity operations being that costly?
Is the only way to increase the single-threaded speed to increase the maximum
CPU core speed/get a faster CPU, and/or theoretically a multi-threaded md-raid
could maximize throughput?
