Two options: Either the USB stack does not chain the transfers in such a way that the device can run at full performance or otherwise the device chokes on the transfers and forces the chain of transfers to be delayed till the next frame. There is a 'bandwidth reclamation' feature in the NetBSD stack in the UHCI driver of which I do not know whether they made it into the USB stack. An option would be to fetch a timestamp from somewhere (is there a tick counter that counts in HZ?) to see which transfer takes a long time. If there is no other activity transferring 64k should take no more than 64 frames roughly, which 64 msecs.
