So far, after eliminating flush option, I achieved a speed of 3.9 MB/s
which was previously 1-2 MB/s.
If I could somehow force the async option, I think speed would
increase more. Any ideas ?
The async option appears true (configured) in hal-device, but doesn't
get mounted with that option.

Hacked mount options by hal finally.
There is not much gain after disabling flush. I was getting 1-2 MB/s
before flush and now 3-4 MB/s
Approximately twice.
I used to get around 7-10 MB/s some time ago with my same pen drives.
I'm researching more to force async option.

Anyway, a slightly off-topic complaint I have is that my 32GB Cruzer
is slow as hell to write to at just a measly 3MB/s. Sheesh. I wonder
if it's the size and technical limitation or whether there might be
some untested hackery.
I was thinking of formatting it in Windows and changing the allocatio

@Ray,
If the device has small buffer size, then it takes lot of time. Who
want's to shell out more bucks for this simple flush thing to get a
device with bigger buffer size.

Yes, it's all placebo effect. What seems like faster transfers is really the

Funny..I remember the very reason for making "flush" a default mount
option was becau

I want that HAL shouldn't add the flush flag. How to ?
