Re: Very slow write on flash drive in sync mode???

Hi,

I use SanDisk cruzer Titanium 2 GB mounted as sync in fstab
/dev/sda1 /mnt/cruzer_sync vfat user,noauto,sync

When I use flash drive in sync mode, it writes on it only 64kB/s. When I
umount it and mount it in not sync mode but do sync manually after it writes
into memory, kernel writes on flash drive 11 MB/s!!! What is wrong in my
configuration?

That's expected with sync vfat mount. Use other filesystem or async.
