Yes.
It's SAS2 but unlike most SAS2 expanders it's SATA2 max, not SATA3 (and it requires a certain firmware, IIRC 1.80+), so half the total bandwidth of a SATA3 expander, 1100MB/s for single link, twice that for dual link.
I'm seeing the same using the SASLP, looks like some issue with diskspeed and this specific controller, real world bandwidth of the SASLP is around 640MB/s, so just divide that by the number of disks you have connected and it will be max speed during check/rebuild.
The only plausible explanation I can think of would be that the parity disk got disable on shutdown during array stop and there was no time for notifications to go out, because the array won't autostart with any missing disk (including parity) and you definitely get a notification if it gets disabled during normal use, in fact you usually get 2 notifications, one about array errors and another about the disabled disk.
I never had SAS drives, and this issue only came up once or twice here in the forums, see below if you can find anything, if not you'll need to google it:
