problems with "JFFS2 write speed"

[Gareth Bult (Encryptec)]

Hi,

I'm using JFFS2 on a USB key. (using mtdblock)

Works well, read speed is blinding ..

If I use ext2, the write speed is measured in Mb/sec ..
Using jffs2 it's 29k / sec ..

Running Linux 2.6.9 ..

Anyone got any ideas re; speedups ?

tia
Gareth.
