Was my raidz2 performance comment above correct? That the write speed is that of the slowest disk? That is what I believe I have read.

Data in raidz2 is striped so that it is split across multiple disks. In this (sequential) sense it is faster than a single disk. For random access, the stripe performance can not be faster than the slowest disk though.
