I ran my tests with our dd and also with /usr/pkg/gnu/bin/dd, supposedly the same or similar enough to the one in Centos; there was no significant difference between the two. The fastest figure came on the system disk when it was attached to an IDE controller with ICH6 chipset. about 180MB/sec. All other combinations return between 110 and 160 MB/sec. Tried with/without host os cache, also there is a setting that the disk is solid state. No apparent difference.
My host system is build 17120, so that may explain something. Not the difference in figures though, comparing to Centos.
