Hi Alistair,

> usb 4-1.4: reset full speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4

a bug fix for ehci + iso urbs bandwidth allocation just got posted to the
usb mailing list.  So I suggest trying uhci instead (OK, I just saw that
you tried it).

What do you mean by "79% utilisation"?

This is what I see.  Using bulk I max out at a bit under 4 megabaud.  With isoc
I max out at an even slower rate!

What is "the windows workaround"?  (I don't have windows, which makes comparing 
with
windows a bit awkward for me).

Are you talking about linux or windows here?  Can you get 6.6 mb with windows?

Anyway, I think it likely that there is something wrong with the driver.  But it
could be a hardware limitation.  Testing with windows should clear that up.  If
you can do some experiments with windows, that would be great.

Ciao,
