  VFS was created so you could program in a way such that you could
  read directly from the card :) without having to copy it to RAM :)
  obviously, if the data is in RAM - it will be faster..

  but.. what if you have a 32Meg file on the card? you cannot copy
  to RAM, so, direct reading is required..
