[Bug 197762] Re: file transfers on USB flash key (pendrive) are slowing down with time

[Digital5700]

echo 10 > dirty_writeback_centisecs
echo 10 > dirty_expire_centisecs

Now it should basically write to the stick continously instead of every
3000 centisecs (30 secs).

I learned when I found that transferring terabytes through my gigabit
results in 30s long pauses, then 80mb/s for a few seconds and then
another pause.

The same principle should be applicable to usb sticks, although it won't
explain why usb harddrives are much faster...
