As a data point, I logged into one of our virtual hosts and tried:
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=/var/tmp/junk oflag=direct bs=64k count=1000
1000+0 records in
1000+0 records out
65536000 bytes (66 MB) copied, 0.971217 seconds, 67.5 MB/s
$ dd if=/var/tmp/junk iflag=direct bs=64k of=/dev/null
1000+0 records in
1000+0 records out
65536000 bytes (66 MB) copied, 0.862861 seconds, 76.0 MB/s
The disk array is currently shared by 15 domU's running across 4 dom0's.
Not as fast as dedicated 15k RPM drives would be, but not bad either.
Some of my physical hosts are faster, some are slower.

Are you using files or direct partitions for the guest image? What
backend driver?
