We're seeing the same thing in Sol10u8 with both 300gb 15k rpm SAS disks 
in-board on a Sun x4250 and an external chassis with 1tb 7200 rpm SATA disks 
connected via SAS. Faster disks aren't the problem; there's a fundamental issue 
with ZFS [iscsi;nfs;cifs] share performance under scrub & resilver.
