I've had good luck mounting UFS -o async on USB keys for the purposes
of doing bulk operations. It still isn't the fastest thing in the
world but it seems fast enough.
Softupdates does a *lot* of tiny I/O's, try disabling it (I think
mounting async disables softupdates automatically but I'm not sure).
