OK, changed the SAS RAID 10 to RAID 5 and now my random writes are
handing 112 MB/ sek. So it is almsot twice as fast as the RAID10

Is the iozone tests faulty?
does IOzone disable the os caches?
If not you need to use a size of 2xRAM for true results.
regardless - the test only took 10 seconds of wall time - which isn't
very long at all. You'd probably want to run it longer anyway.
iozone -e -i0 -i1 -i2 -i8 -t1 -s 1000m -r 8k -+u -F /database/iotest
