I seem to recall you saying, at some point, that scatter-gather may now be reliable enough for ub to use; could that at least bring performance up to usable levels, even if it doesn't fix this? (I can't find where you might have said that, though, so I might be imagining things.) (I can't even offer people a workaround by reformatting their device: mkdosfs will happily use a 4k block size with FAT, but Windows, knowing best, simply ignores all such requests. Not that I'd be keen on giving players instructions that involve formatting devices, anyway ...) -- Glenn Maynard ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Oracle Space Sweepstakes Want to be the first software developer in space?
