# mount -t vfat /dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt

dd (coreutils) 8.5

'test.dat' was a 8MB file of random data on a 4GB SDHC card
(extrememory) on a slot powered by the mx28. Operating the card at
50Mhz, dd will report ~55 kb/s. If I add 'rate /= 2;' to the beginning
of set_clk_rate, so it will operate at 25Mhz, I have 8mb/s.
