Since then I replaced all my 3ware controllers with Areca controllers and haven't regretted it, but I haven't done any serious measurement (I mostly care for reliability, btw) but they where noticably faster.
FWIW, the Areca models 1222 and 1680 both have IOP348 processors on the card... I've worked with that processor, it is fast(!) and has a bunch of SATA ports on it. Wonder if they are running soft-raid on the "hardware" controller card?
