It's very strange, that is for sure.  I wonder if it's something in the
Kernel?  Because even if I take away the 1 second delay it still works
with the improved rate.


I updated my ddrescue line though to deal with the situation where I
might find bad blocks during the read (a very real thing).

  ddrescue -i ${RECOVERY_SIZE}M -T 20 -v -f -s 1M /dev/sdd img log
