Also, writing back the default values to the /proc/sys/vm/... files
doesn't fix the problem — so far only reboot with avoiding writing bad
values helped.

Title:
  upowerd kills USB performance

Status in “upower” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After launching Kubuntu and logging in to KDE I mount a USB storage
  device to e.g. /mnt/tmp and try the following command:

  dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/tmp/testfile bs=16M count=100

  I don't wait until it finishes, because when I press Ctrl+C, it waits
  several more seconds and prints that it has copied only one record and
  the speed was from 200 kB/s to 1.8MB/s, which is nowhere near the
  speed the device can operate.

  On the other hand, if I rename /usr/lib/upower/upowerd and restart,
  the same command finishes in under a minute and says the speed was
  >30MB/s for USB3 and ~30MB/s for USB2 devices/ports.

  This hasn't happened on Kubuntu 12.04, but does happen on 14.04.
  Running powertop at the "Tunables" tab doesn't show any difference, so it doesn't look related to autosuspend or similar things.
  This also happens with Kubuntu 14.04 LiveCD, not only with the already installed system.

  I've tested this with 3 different USB devices: Transcend JF780 16GB
  (in USB 3.0 and 2.0 ports), OCZ ATV 8GB (USB 2.0 device) and Seagate
  SRD00F2 2TB (in USB 3.0 and 2.0 ports) with identical results.
