As requested in the readme, I have used flashbench to test the card in the topic. Here are my results, taken by a Debian Wheezy install (Linux omega1 3.2.0-2-amd64 #1 SMP Mon Jun 11 17:24:18 UTC 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux) on a Transcend 3.0 USB reader running through a USB2 port:

sudo ./flashbench -a /dev/sdm --blocksize=1024
