(note: this was during a file copy over 100Mb/s LAN, reaching the max throughput of such a LAN)
To check local disk performance on my zpool I used:
# time (mkfile 2g /extra/foo)
real 2m7.349s
user 0m0.017s
sys 0m1.247s
(this creates a random file foo of 2GB in my zpool extra and shows the time to complete)
