JFFS2 is more or less deprecated these days.  FOr new projects, we
recommend to use UBI/ UBIFS instead.

JFFS2 has always been slow, especially when mounting larger file
systems.  This is one of the resons we recommend UBIFS instead.

v2010.09 is in no way "current".  The latest release available at this
