Meanwhile, I tested my patched fx2_programmer on an onboard Intel
controller and reached the 32MB/sec as well. Now I am still wondering
what happens when two devices are accessed at the same time
(unfortunately I don't have two of these FX2 based cameras available at
the moment). If you are right about the controller being in general the
bottleneck, that would mean a "true kernel space" driver would not
perform any better and there might not even be any device/controller
combination with a higher throughput than those 32MB/sec available at
the moment. Has anybody any information about what is actually possible
with currently available hardware?

There is of course another possibility: maybe the FX2 is the bottleneck
here.

So, if the total throughput with 2 devices happens to be 32MB/sec as
well, I'd conclude that there is no controller available with a higher
throughput. I would hope for a total throughput of as near to 60MB/sec
as possible :-).

In case you find the time to make this test, I'd be eager to know about
the results.

Thanks,
  Axel
