The life of such flash drive (a pen drive, which has no TRIM support) will
be very low, SPECIALLY using a journaling file system.

Ext2 with very large cache and lazy writes IMHO would be the only sensible
option. But then F2FS is specially designed for flash storage... so I guess
it's a matter of waiting for F2FS to mature.... :-/
