So I guess it is the card...
After considerable research, I bought a new card:
SanDisk 32GB Extreme SDHC Memory Card (SDSDRX3-032G-A21) - 45MB/s
and got dramatically better results for the 4KB writes (on my Windows 7
machine):

Next step: try it in my Windows 8 tablet and put my SeaMonkey profile on it.
Question: if you were me, would you format it as NTFS? Or just leave well alone
and hope I do not want to copy files bigger than 4GB onto it.
