Read the feedback from testers: * User 1: With that patch I can improve read speed of large files from a high performance USB stick (Buffalo Firestix "R") from 16MB/s upto 32MB/s on an Intel dual core system or up to 25MB/s on an older AthlonXP/VIA system. For comparison: Manufacturer says "read 32MB/s" and independent benchmarks from computer magazines on Windows say 25MB/s or 27MB/s. Unfortunately that patch does not help for write speed. I still measure 3.5MB/s, which is way below manufacturer's 27MB/s write specification, or results from other OS. * User 2: Intel ICH8: I had performance: 3 MB/s, now I have 11.5-12..13 * User 2: nVidia chipset - no changes * User 2: Intel P5B-VM 10 MB/s up to 30Мб!!!!
