In windows I can get a 14MB/s data transfer rate in Windows (write) to my USB drive. However in BSD, I only get a 630KB/s transfer rate. Whats the best way to ascertain *why* I'm getting this slow performance? I'm not sure which diagnostic steps to take at this point. I know I had the USB2 modules compiled into my kernel.
