Just a silly one but are you guys using the same
version of gzip, would be worth just checking?

No, it isn't. I did benchmarks before importing the NetBSD version
into DragonFly two years ago and gzip was *always* slower. zlib 1.2
added quite a number of performance improvements as well, so it
shouldn't be the problem.
I have no idea why it is that slow on FreeBSD -- I don't think the
slightly older version we have in DragonFly 1.6 is the origin.
The programs I run were from memory as well.
