I don't know either.  Reading the whole drive would take a few years, so
I'm only fetching the few parts which have changed since the last
backup, and when I look the rate seems to be always ~45kB/s, but
obviously there have to be bursts at higher speeds (presumably because
the drive's defect doesn't affect every cylinder in the same way or
something like that.  E.g. the average has moved up to ~80kB/s since my
last message).
