Do you mean the cpu of the n810? if so run top in terminal and post what is using the cpu?
ps- I find using ssh much easier that having to plug wires in (you can use fireftp on firefox for an easy ssftp client)

This is not normal and sounds as if the memory card is very slow. Are you copying to the built-in memory card, or do you use an external one?
Maybe the card is corrupt and causes a lot of read-errors, resulting in slowness and high CPU usage because of constant retrying.

Thanks for your responses..
@pycage: Its to a new memory card which I put into the N810. I dont have a card reader to test it independently of the N810, but I do have another memory card that I could borrow and try to rule out the card.. I'll do that today and see if it makes any difference.
@xopher_mc: Yep I mean the CPU on the n810. I've done what you suggested, and this is what I've come up with:
When its not doing anything:
When I'm copying a file from my laptop to the N810 via USB, to mmc2 (my memory card in the N810 - not the built in one)
I'm getting only 1.2MB/second, and the results of top are:
So I can see its not maxing out the CPU.. I thought it was based on the load-applet which showed 100% (not sure why).. but still the 1.2MB/s speed is very annoying. Any ideas if the results of top indicate a problem?
Thanks!

As for USB, the speed of the card comes into play, and also take into account that the data is transferred twice - from the computer to the NIT (and USB is not too CPU friendly to boot, this is what you see in top), and from the NIT to the flash (and this one is not visible readily through top). Also, any running applications are not helping you either. If you really want to copy large amounts of data, I'd recommend taking the card out and writing to it directly. In my case that's a sustained 1.5MB/s versus 17MB/s difference.
