I know, just thought I'd mention it anyway

Ups, missed that. That's really a huge speed gain. I wonder why this
happens. Maybe the overhead of request/release sdram region is
significant with MMU disabled. Could you play with the BUFSIZ parameter
to see if there's a good compromise between speeding up your transfer
and still sensible buffer sizes?

BTW I wonder if it would be possible to use the MMU in your setup. We
have a 1:1 flat mapping which should be no problem for the ROM code.
You probably would have to use dma_alloc_coherent to allocate the
buffers which are used for USB transfers.

Sascha
