The numbers are indeed much better:

MB/s Runtime (s)
----- -----------
btrfs-unstable 17.09 572

The disk is capable of 40+ MB/s however the test partition was one of the
last ones and as I figured it out now, it can do only 26 MB/sec. Btrfs bulk
write easily sustains it. The write speed was 21 MB/s during the benchmark,
so btrfs is the closest to the possible best write speed in the test
environment.
