This behavior sounds more like a configuration error of your harddisk 
drivers or some other odd configuration on your Linux system. The only 
rational reason why JPEG would be "fastest" is that is produces the 
smallest file of all file formats, and hence the actual data written to 
disk is the least.

So you may want to start checking your local configuration.
