I really would hope that some Industry Consortium (like Linaro) pushes for more sane Smartcard Filesystems instead of fixing the stuff afterwards. I mean using FAT for flash storage seems pretty awkward to me.
Besides having a abstraction layer for naked flash in kernel seems like a good idea. So shoving this stuff into the propretary firmware layer doesn't sound like a good idea to me.

I second this idea, SD cards are increasingly used in various embedded devices these days. I'm comparing various SD(SLC and MLC) using different file systems, the result is pretty random so it's hard to find the best SD with the best filesystem easily for certain applications these days.

Please contact me by email about your test work. It would be very good to correlate these high-level benchmarks with the low-level measurements that I started on https://wiki.linaro.org/WorkingGroups/KernelConsolidation... .
Also everyone else, if you have a lot of SD cards or USB sticks, please run flashbench on it and send me the results.
