oops, forgot that:
/dev/sdc1 on /mnt/mnt type vfat (rw,relatime,sync,uid=500,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=utf8,shortname=mixed,errors=remount-ro)

legolas:~# mount -o remount,nosync /dev/sdc1 /mnt/mnt
obviously makes things much faster, but by then the copy is acked
immediately (it's too fast to even measure the speed) but the usb key
keeps writing in the background for a while as expected.
flush option does not seem enabled.
Still, you're likely on the right track, something seems to wait for
each write to proceed before sending the next one.
Is there another option I can try?
Thanks,
Marc
