Thread: USB flash, IOWAIT, and hanging

hello,

of time when using usb flash drives under linux, os lock @ 100% iowait, load average of 12-18. music stutters , stops.

using usb drives makes core i7 3.0ghz hyperthreaded act pentium 2 running vista. it's embarrassing. client asks file, , takes me 2 hours copy it. deal breaker. i've been trying find solution. if can't, i'm sorry i'll leaving linux can use usb drives. i've been using ubuntu 4 years, i'd hate leave. don't take threat, stark fact based on business decisions.

please me solve this. i'll give virtual beer.

bump?
