I thought that too at first, though the uba driver did not work with all
the usb devices that the regular usb-storage did. I'd gotten one of the
lexar 6-way cf/sd/etc flash readers, that registered the fact that it
was plugged in yet it only would spew hundreds of errors in dmesg and
seemed to think the new device had zero storage. But uba worked fine
reading the same memory card with a sandisk compact flash reader. The
regular usb-storage worked perfectly with all the readers I have. 

Not sure what kind of devices require the "low performance" driver
instead of the old reliable usb-storage, but unless you absolutely need
that, I'd avoid it.
