I copied very large files with rsync. rsync prints the transfer rate on the screen, and in case of NTFS, it was the expected 10 MByte/s (I copied though 100MBit Ethernet on the USB disk), and in case of FAT32 it was 900 kByte/s. So, it was even more that a factor of 10 because for NTFS, the transfer was limited by the Ethernet.
Thus, FAT32 is definitely responsible for ridiculously slow writing on the USB disk on my Lubuntu 12.04. This surely is a bug. My question is whether this is covered by this bug report here.
