It seems that you are asking one question but really want a different one
answered.
Solutions to your stated question (easiest to most difficult):
1. Use a release ROM instead of a debug ROM. The debug ROMs contain
error-checking code that slows down many system functions. This is usually
what you want when writing code, but you can use a release ROM if you just
want more speed (you won't get the added checking).
2. Get a faster computer.
3. Optimize the POSE source code. I suspect your effort/return ratio will be
pretty high with this approach.
I would perform the sync with a real device - you might find that the
problem has nothing to do with POSE at all. The bottleneck might be in
Ultralite or the HotSync process. The comments of others here will be a poor
substitute for your own empirical data.
