I managed to get performance up a bit to around 10mb/sec & 5mb/sec (W & R) by maxing out buflen at 131072, setting stall to 0 and adding total=10000000; to dummy_hcd, but that's still an order of magnitude less than it ought to be. I'm poking around the files to see if there's anything else I can understand that I can change.
