[I read all postings in the archive AFAIK]

Just started with CF on embedded hardware advertised to run OpenBSD; ARInfoTek. It does run OpenBSD very well! Now I want the embedded system to run off CF; the board has a CF socket to be wd0. 4.2 runs out of the box, but with very slow access of files. The CF is reasonably fast, though, with ~6MB at 'dd'. But once it has to access files for r/w, it gets very slow. I found some postings that 4.3 would be better, but the install of 4.3 here mainly -stalled- and took a good hour, from a local ftp-site.
locate.updatedb is incredibly fast, while some file extraction takes ages.
It looks like a large, single, file copies very fast, similar to 'dd'. But opening a file for r/w seems to take ages. Something like
tar -C /tmp -xzphf etc43.tgz
takes a minute, easily. And etc43.tgz is only 1.2MB.
Copying of this file is quick:
$ date &&  cp etc43.tgz demo && date
Mon Oct 20 11:29:15 SGT 2008
Mon Oct 20 11:29:16 SGT 2008

Any hint welcome,

Uwe
