Joe asked me a very basic/obvious question: is block zeroing enabled?
(block zeroing is enabled by default -- you have to know to disable it)

If zeroing wasn't disabled that could explain some of the sizable
performance differences.  Please use/test the 'skip_block_zeroing'
feature if you aren't already (also see the "Zeroing' section of the
'lvmthin' manpage).
