So I'm finding that the 5D Mark 2 and 5D Mark 3 with the built in formatting will format CF cards to FAT32 with an offset of 31K and I believe an allocation of 16K
31K of course making the CF card not aligned..aligning the partition with an offset of 32K with an allocation of 16K appears to be giving me a ~10MB/s read speed increase but a ~10MB/s write decrease
FAT32 seems to be easier for me to troubleshoot myself seeing as there are way less options
I'll keep messing with it

http://pastebin.com/whfv5k2vwith these tests I was reading a forum that was saying a 1024 offset was a good start point and a 64K allocation would give performance increases, curious as to how these benchmarks compare to my last benchmark
