@Matthew:

Speeds under 8MB/sec *are slow*, but this bug refers to USB 1.1 or 1.0 which is VERY SLOW e.g. 1.5MB/sec

what you're seeing might be another related or unrelated bug in some part of the data path between the OS and the drive.

just a thought: check by right-click, properties in nautilus, go to drive tab, see speed "480 Mbps" or "12 Mbps"... the first is USB 2.0 and the second is 1.0/1.1
