Part of the problem in this case is that the device isn't used
with USB 2.0 protocol but the slower USB 1.x protocol.
USB 1.x is limited to ~1MByte/sec.   (And using pcfs on top
of that makes things worse)

Is that an old laptop?  Maybe the USB controller doesn't really
implement the newer USB 2.0?  Are there any "ehci" USB 2.0
controllers listed with "prtconf -D | grep ehci" ?
