Well the fastest "interface" on the board is probably the GPMC which I've
been told can achieve 40MB/s + *BUT* that's not dealing with the external
world as it were, which is what the OP needs.

The OP only needs around 8-9MB/s so, the best solution is probably using
the USB interface, and one of the gadget drivers. Another option I had not
considered before was using g_mass_storage. If one created a tmpfs file,
this could potentially be the best options. But I'd have to talk with the
OP at length to see what exactly the criteria calls for.
