If it is a raid I cold be wrong about the filesystem performance being the only problem. You can test if this is the case by creating a backup of a single file that is 1GB or so to media that is already loaded and see if the performance is closer to the network maximum. Maybe test an already compressed file of this size versus a file containing all zeros.
