mdgm and I have decided that its time to lock this thread. So please do post any new OS6 on Legacy issues on their own threads.

Also I'm looking for an easily understandable description of the workings of BTRFS while writing data. I'm wondering if writing many small blocks means multiple read/write operations over the array, triggering multiple seek/rotational latencies. If that is the case, there should be a huge difference between RAID1 and RAID5. But that would be a more general problem with MDRAID and BTRFS in many scenarios...
Nope, this wasn't it. Tried 6.1.6 yesterday, the problem is still there with a RAID1 -- in fact, it is even WORSE, giving 1.5MB/sec. So this is not related to BTRFS-on-RAID5, it's a pure BTRFS problem.
