I agree the blocksize may be part of the issue but you may also want to check your EMC. EMCs are funny beasts, if your RAID group contains too few disks you may have a problem. We ran into this in our AIX 5.3->EMC Clariion environment.
Other things worth checking are your firmware and driver versions for your HBA.
