I also have the same problem. It seems that block files are slow and it is not possible to mount raw files. I tested it with dd(1) and found that fastest way to transfer data is using raw devices: # dd if=/dev/rsd1c of=temp.fs bs=1m # vnconfig vnd0 temp.fs # mount /dev/vnd0i /mnt/usb # ... do copy ... # umount /mnt/usb # vnconfig -u vnd0 # dd if=temp.fs of=/dev/rsd1c bs=1m
