Also, IIRC the GNURadio board uses an EZ-USB FX2, so you are probably limited to the FIFO rate (48 MBytes/sec). Even then, you may not be able to get that with bulk transfers. (Are you using bulk or isochronous?) I'm not sure about the internal vs external slowdown, though (most of the time, I'm at the other end of the spectrum: increasing timeouts to accomodate for low-speed transfers). Too bad there isn't an easy equivalent of lspci in OS X to see what the latency settings of the USB chips are. -- - Charles Lepple |
