I hadn't noticed, but you're right; even the MMC card is faster (19MB/sec).

I'm still getting lots of errors for the mtdblock devices, and an
attempt to write a new kernel failed somehow (u-boot crashes when trying
to read it).

I'm getting 35MB/s for RAID0 with 4 disks (one disk gets 25MB/s). I
notice you're using RAID5 --- how many disks is that? My experiments
showed that while I get reasonable write performance on 3 disks, adding
the fourth reduces it to about 1MB/s.

Indeed!

However, is the kernel.conf for it available anywhere? I need to build
some external modules and want to set my source up correctly.
