I tried changing cables, nothing changed.  Then I saw something about 
smartmontools on the net, and I installed that.  It reported that c2t4d0 had 
indeed reported a SMART error.  Why didn't Solaris detect this?  

I then went ahead and offlined c2t4d0, after which the pool performed much more 
like expected with excellent speeds.  

I tried to do a zpool replace with the hotspare, but it was connected through 
another raid controller which seems to have taken some of the sectors to 
itself, which lead to the disk being too small to be able to replace the 
defective, even though they are identical... This was a good thing to discover 
before it was too late as well :)  

I then physically replaced the defective drive with the hotspare, and then the 
resilvering could begin.  If everything goes well, maybe it will be in normal 
working condition again in the morning :)

Thanks to everyone for helping out.
