I think the pause is related to garbage collection.  What will happen
if you mount the partition with -i option ?

   # mount -t nilfs2 -i /dev/xxx /mnt/media

This option skips invoking the garbage collector (cleanerd).


If it raises throughput, you can adjust by slowing down cleanerd by
rewriting /etc/nilfs_cleanerd.conf (a HUP signal must be sent to the
cleanerd to reflect the change):

   # The maximum number of segments to be cleaned at a time.
 - nsegments_per_clean     2
 + nsegments_per_clean     1

   # Cleaning interval in seconds
 - cleaning interval       5
 + cleaning interval       10
