My MicroDrive Turbo IDE (GS-firmware) is much faster with a IDE 2,5" harddisk than a CFFA 2.0 (v1.2 65C02 firmware) with a Sandisk flash card. My GS (2,8MHz) boots quicker to begin with and I can note differences when I copy many or large files.
I have pretty much the same set-up and I find the MicroDrive noticeably faster. I imagine attaching a 7200 rpm drive would speed things up even more (or melt something).>
