There have been reported problems with ICH7 on FreeBSD mailing lists,
though I can't find any that affect performance.

See if changing balance algorithm to "split", and slice size to 8192 or
more, while keeping vfs.read_max to 16 or more helps your performance.
(e.g. gmirror configure -b split -s 8192 gm0)
Also, how is your file system mounted? (what does output from 'mount' say?)
