I can tell you I've had terrible everything rates when I used dedup.

This is more or less irrelevant, becuase the system doesn't load it into memory 
anyway.  It will cache a copy in ARC just like everything else in the pool.  It 
gets evicted just as quickly as everything else.

Are you talking about scrub rates for the complete scrub?  Because if you sit 
there and watch it, from minute to minute, it's normal for it to bounce really 
low for a long time, and then really high for a long time, etc.  The only 
measurement that has any real meaning is time to completion.
