[osol-discuss] USB drive unusable (with snv_85)

2008-04-05 Thread Bruno Damour
hello, I have a USB pen drive, formatted with FAT32. It is working with correct speed under linux, windows, freebsd. I mean I can copy to and from files. In the contrary, it is VERY slow on opensolaris. I mean a transfer of 10 files total 1GB takes around 3 mn on windows and 1 1/2 hour in solaris.

the pcfs driver (fat32 implementation in solaris) is severly limited in its speed, it gives a maximum speed of ~3mb/s, so don't expect to have higher speeds... This message posted from opensolaris.org ___ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris
