I ran bonnie++ on the armel machine on flash and USb drive (lacie 250GB)
bonnie++ -d /tmp -n 3 -m balloon-armel -u wookey
(/tmp is flash not ram on this box, currently)
here is what I got:

bonnie does IO tests for throughput (top half) (database type
activity), and then test on lots of small files (bottom half)
(mail/compile type activity)
Decoding this lot:
testing IO throughput with 496MB files. (i.e approx twice size of memory: 256MB on
this box), do files tests with 1024*3 files (-n 3).
%CP is %CPU usage. So looks like flash acces is CPU limited as it's
jammed at 99-100% on all tests. USB access on the other hand has
_much_ lower CPU usage (for IO, but not the file tests) and similar
speed for ouptu, but about half speed for input.
+++++ on the file read tests shows it took less than 500ms. I'll re-do
with more files...
