So it's reduced a lot, but still it is much slower than... sorry guys,

Still, from 50 minutes to 18 to copy 256M is a significant improvement
Try using "softdep" option for mount, possibly even the "async" option, if
you like the risk, otherwise you are comparing two completely different
modes of filesystem operation.
