most of which is writing to the log (the log is contigous, why isn't it writing
faster?), and much slower in the actual data (maybe because there isn't much
actual data written): 500Kb/s.

> sda               0.20         0.00         0.10          0          0

sdg is the drive holding the log.

This disk can do 80Mb/s sustained write speed (by using dd):
sdg             156.80         0.00     80281.60          0     401408

I would have expected log I/O to be about 40-60Mb/s, but its 8Mb/s.
