I have no hard metrics, but having gone from 7.2-release to 7.2-stable sometime in the last couple weeks has really made my usb experience quite unpleasant. I now have much trouble with loss of communication to uslcom devices when closing and reopening them (*not* plugging and unplugging them). Simply closing and reopening the port causes the open to freeze about 25% of the time. I seem to have similar problems with umass devices. I tend to leave evertthing plugged into the same hub and when it freezes, I unplug the cable from the hub. That caused a freeze & reboot (I assume there was a panic, although no output on the screen).
Anyway, like I said, no real chance of debug with it being so intermittent, just an FYI. Just thought I'd issue a report in case we just merged head into stable and most people think it's great - I'm not finding it great at the moment. If I do find a repeatable sequence of events, I'll send some info. Best!
