[ts-7000] speeding up usb-storage access

["Yan Seiner" <>]

I am using a TS7250 as a backup server.  I've got a large-ish USB
drive attached to the usb port.

The problem is that access is abysmally slow - far slower than the
12mbit/sec port speed would indicate.

I am using cp -al (from rsnapshot) to create multiple backups.

cp -al recurses the tree and creates links to existing files.  Very
little data is moved - but the process takes hours on this drive. 
There's only 7gb on the drive total.

Anyone have any magic options to speed up access?

I've tried noatime,async but that doesn't seem to make any difference.
