If you are talking about the time it takes to write an image to a
card, I think you should be looking at the block size option with dd.
dd if=image.img of=/dev/sdb bs=1M
I use 1M because it works flawlessly with my card writer. I had done a
google search for it and found a recommendation of 4k. But 1M works
for me, so I've stuck to 1M for now.
