With the DRBD and GFS (in primary/primary mode) setup I was seeing an average of roughly 55MB/s as opposed to ~206MB/s for EXT3 and ~334 MB/s on XFS... (unless my numbers are horribly wrong).

Hmm, what is your DRBD setup? Try the following:

    no-disk-barrier;
    no-disk-flushes;
    no-md-flushes;
    no-disk-drain;

Which program are you benchmarking I/O with?

dd if=/dev/zero of=/share/test bs=1G count=8
