Some more numbers from another site, with hardware specifics.

I just had to restore two TSM instances, both running on a single P-630,
AIX 5.2, LTO2 drives, FC, with disks on ESS800. Raid 5, one instance is
raw and one is on JFS2.

DB1 (JFS2)      14,490,178 Used pages: Restore took  ~1.25 hours
DB2 (RAW)       20,443,583 Used pages: Restoer took ~1.25 hours

Both systems have 5 database volumes assigned.
