Thank you for this report.  This may depend on the underlying filesystem
used on the USB drive, it's properties, and whether it is a filesystem
supported natively or through fuse.  Also, not all USB ports on a PC are
necessarily the same.  Some systems have a mixture of USB 1.0 and 2.0
ports, and USB 1.0 tends to be much slower in base I/O speeds.  Finally,
any USB drive likely will be slower than a build-in harddisk simply
because often you have a USB device that then converts USB to SATA or
PATA bus to actually talk to the actual drive.  If you can identify the
filesystem on the USB drive, it may help better understanding this
issue.
