Guten Tag zusammen,

vor kurzem bin ich mit meinem USB-Stick ebenfalls ausgebremst worden.
Im Gentoo-Forum beschuldigten einige aber nicht den Kernel, sondern HAL.

http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-356789-highlight-slow+usb.html

Bei mir was das des Pudels Kern (statt 5h für 600MB nur noch wenige
Minuten)

Grüße

Zitat:
USB 2.0 will slow down extremely when writing to an (USB) device with
vfat if you mount it with the "sync"-option. Unfortunately HAL exactly
did this if the device was smaller than 2 GB. So I had to edit the
file /usr/share/hal/fdi/90defaultpolicy/storage-policy.fdi and made this
changes: 

<!-- Use noatime and sync options for all hotpluggable or removable
volumes smaller than 2GB --> 
          <match key="volume.size" compare_lt="2147483648"> 
            <match key="@block.storage_device:storage.hotpluggable"
bool="true"> 
                                                            <!-- Was
true before --> 
              <merge key="volume.policy.mount_option.sync"
type="bool">false</merge> 
              <merge key="volume.policy.mount_option.noatime"
type="bool">true</merge> 
            </match> 
            <match key="@block.storage_device:storage.removable"

Now I can transfer with much higher speeds (~ 4 MB/s). The only thing is
that it takes a while to umount the device.
