Also note that the copying speed is well below the standard rate for high-speed USB devices even in the initial state. As a first look this phenomenon is independent of the filesystem of the USB stick although some effect may be observed. I formatted it either ext3, ntfs or vfat the result was the same. Copying starts around 20-30 MB/sec transfer speed and around 300 MB copied materials the process is slowing down below 15 MB/sec and between 400-500 MB transfered data it is below 10 MB/sec. Reaching the 1GB amount of copied data the speed is only around 2 MB/sec. In case of using vfat file system the transfer speed may go below the 1MB/sec transfer speed at this stage. The number of the files I transfered from my hard drive to a 16GB USB pandrive were 350 with a total size of 5.4GB. In an other experiment (with ntfs usb partition) transferring only one large file having a size of 2.7GB took more than a hour (0.7 MB/sec in average)!

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 541937] Re: Copying files to USB flash drive is extremely slow
zvaral, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ . If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux replace-with-bug-number Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 500069 USB file transfer causes system freezes; ops take hours instead of minutes ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete ** Attachment removed: Emeric's bonnie logs https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/541937/+attachment/1751730/+files/emeric_01.tar.bz2 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/541937 Title: Copying files to USB flash drive is extremely slow Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “linux” package in Fedora: Unknown Status in openSUSE: Unknown Bug description: Copying files from an internal hard drive to an external USB pandrive is slowing down during this process in Lucid Lynx alpha3 with all the updates until now.
