A couple of questions for you:

(1) What OS are you running (Solaris, BSD, MacOS X, etc)?

(2) What's your config?  In particular, are any of the partitions
    on the same disk?

(3) Are you copying a few big files or lots of small ones?

(4) Have you measured UFS-to-UFS and ZFS-to-ZFS performance on the
    same platform?  That'd be useful data...
