Adjusting the blocksize up even more gets ~32 MB/s over firewire:

# dd if=/dev/da1s1 of=/dev/null bs=51200 count=10000 skip=20000
10000+0 records in
10000+0 records out
512000000 bytes transferred in 16.030257 secs (31939600 bytes/sec)

...which is plenty good enough for the time being-- it's probably being limited 
by the drive throughput more than anything else.
