I have Ubuntu Feisty and i noticed that when copy start if i change the target directory in nautilus, the copy speeds up. I usually check this with movies, or pictures. I think nautilus is reading movie information to generate thumbnails while the copy is writing. This is not good in external drives (try to make two copies at same time and see how the time to copy increases)
