It is also worth noting that this problem is not restricted to relatively small usb sticks. I have the same problem copying large (30GB) files to a 1TB external drive. When you have a drive that big - or bigger - 30GB files are not at all unreasonable. I've started booting with Fedora to copy my large files, and I see the problem to some extent there, but it's nowhere near as bad as the recent Ubuntu issues, and it doesn't freeze.
