Given the issue described is slow zfs recv over network, I suspect this is:

6729347 Poor zfs receive performance across networks

This is quite easily worked around by putting a buffering program 
between the network and the zfs receive. There is a public domain 
"mbuffer" which should work, although I haven't tried it as I wrote my 
own. The buffer size you need is about 5 seconds worth of data. In my 
case of 7200RPM disks (in a mirror and not striped) and a gigabit 
ethernet link, the disks are the limiting factor at around 57MB/sec 
sustained i/o, so I used a 250MB buffer to best effect. If I recall 
correctly, that speeded up the zfs send/recv across the network by about 
3 times, and it then ran at the disk platter speed.
