Why raid10 driver from Centos 6 has a 300% slower random write performance

Please share your ideas.
If my research is correct, centos5 is 2.6.18 kernel and centos6 is 2.6.32
kernel?
So just guessing, although my experience with this was from using a
filesystem which it seems you are not doing?

Does seekmark use barriers to assure that data has actually been written?
In that case it could be that 2.6.18 has different behaviour from 2.6.32
when it comes to barriers and that explains the speed difference.
