Hi everyone,
I've recently tried to use my usb flash drive to copy stuff on it. First, i
discovered that letting usb-mount manage it, makes it dead slow (approx.
100KB/s). However, mounting it manually changed things, but not to what i
expected: the transfer starts off okay (25MB/s) then suddenly pauses, more
and more often, until the average transfer rates approaches 1MB/s, but
barely progresses at all.
My kernel is 2.6.26, same thing happens with 2.6.28. My distro is debian
lenny, all updates installed.
Anyone got the same issue?
Have a nice week end!
I have seen a similar issue when transferring to micro SD cards,
transfer seems to plateau out at between 300-500kB/s. Especially
prevalent with large sustained transfers.
I assumed it was the flash cards because it didn't matter if I used
the laptops built in card reader or a usb trans-flash adapter, Now I'm
starting to think it's an inherent problem with flash memory
alltogether.

apartment it is.
