The performance was terrible. After some tests with raid0, raid1, non-SATA discs, and using DTrace, i have realized that the problem was the "gnome-terminal". Basically the "-v" switch.
I've noticed something similar on my Linux machine. If I run "rsync -v" at a virtual terminal (not through X) to back up my hard disk to a locally attached external disk, rsync runs considerably faster when I select a virtual terminal other than the one to which it is printing its messages. I don't know what is going on here but I agree with Carles that it probably isn't specific to rsync.
