Not totally--the very first graph shows that even on random data, 100%
write apps are 1/2 the speed of a regular hard drive.
After poking around the site a bit more they also did some tests with MFT,
some kernel software from Easy Computing that basically uses a write log
disk to improve the write situation:

That version also has a better summary of the results.
MFT is clearly not ready for prime time yet from the general buginess, but
as that approach matures (and more vendors do something similar in
hardware) it will be really interesting to see what happens.
