[gentoo-user] usb storage transfer is very slow

[Michal Kurgan]

Hello!
Recently i spotted that my usb flash memory work very slow, about 5kB/s on 
write. On internet search i discover that it's problem with new kernel 
(2.6.12) and "sync" mount option, that is now correctly(?) respected by fat 
filesystem.
This is my case, but i want to have sth like sync when using removable 
devices, is there any option to do this? I much prefer that i see that sth is 
copied, not only then when i will try unmount device (in this case i don't 
know if there are any problems, earlier with sync i saw transfer rate, and 
this is what i want)
