Title:
  [Acer Ferrari 4000] Copying files to USB flash drive is extremely slow

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in “linux” package in Fedora:
  Unknown
Status in openSUSE:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  Copying files from an internal hard drive to an external USB pandrive
  is slowing down during this process in Lucid Lynx alpha3 with all the
  updates until now. Also note that the copying speed is well below the
  standard rate for high-speed USB devices even in the initial state.

  As a first look this phenomenon is independent of the filesystem of
  the USB stick although some effect may be observed. I formatted it
  either ext3, ntfs or vfat the result was the same. Copying starts
  around 20-30 MB/sec transfer speed and around 300 MB copied materials
  the process is slowing down below 15 MB/sec and between 400-500 MB
  transfered data it is below 10 MB/sec. Reaching the 1GB amount of
  copied data the speed is only around 2 MB/sec. In case of using vfat
  file system the transfer speed may go below the 1MB/sec transfer speed
  at this stage.

  The number of the files I transfered from my hard drive to a 16GB USB
  pandrive were 350 with a total size of 5.4GB.

  In an other experiment (with ntfs usb partition) transferring only one
  large file having a size of 2.7GB took more than a hour (0.7 MB/sec in
  average)!
