I've had good luck mounting UFS -o async on USB keys for the purposes of doing bulk operations. It still isn't the fastest thing in the world but it seems fast enough. Softupdates does a *lot* of tiny I/O's, try disabling it (I think mounting async disables softupdates automatically but I'm not sure). -Matt Matthew Dillon <dillon@backplane.com>
