Thumb drive ext2 slow write speed

I just got a new SanDisk 2GB cruzer micro and formatted it to ext2 (using qtparted).
I then proceeded to copy just under 600MB of data --- it took more than 10 minutes! What's going 
on? Is it because of ext2? Should I reformat it as ext3?
This is on a Dell Inspiron 1525 (with USB 2).

Blessings,

Nigel
