Could faster CF cards work any better I wonder?
There is a known bug on the iLiad when using WiFi and the CF card at the same time. The transfer rate goes down to ~1kb/s in this case. This isn't specific to any CF brand or model, so exchanging the CF card won't help either.

I think you could enhance the script to download the file to /tmp first and move it to the CF card afterwards...
