Just FYI a 3 disk Raid 5 is the worst performing array there is for write
operations if the log file is also on the array. Are you sure there are no
other apps or services running on this machine? I don't know if you can
schedule profiler or not but you can schedule a trace. With sp_tracecreate
and it's associated sp's you can create a trace that writes to a file and
schedule that any time you want in sql agent. Maybe these links can give
you some thing to start with in dealing with performance.
