Bug Description
Binary package hint: gparted
There is no graphics acceleration on this board, so the rendering of the progress bar is done entirely on the CPU.
Note that renice can be used to increase the priority of mkfs; this improves things significantly.

I wonder if this happens on x86 with non-accelerated graphics too, or whether the used rendering code is very slow on armel for some reason...
