Linux kernel is already on ext. If you mean to change the flash partition, it's definitively not a good idea, since the system mounts it as a flash partition when an USB cable is attached.

I'm quite sure the ereaders that Kobo uses load into memory the book once opened. So the only disk I/O operations are at Kobo boot, at book open and when you use the database (writing notes etc). And when you add books of course. So speed disk is not a bottleneck.

If you really want to improve the speed of Kobo, I suggest you to learn C
