Hello, hm - interesting, the performance could be really increased. But only a little bit - its now around 60kb/sec (okay a factor of nearly 2) - the average delay is still around 1 msec. Well faster but not at a real USB limit. I played around with the count value and 10 seems to be one of the best. Any other Ideas? The Windows XP shows me a pretty old USB Host adaptor, is there a way to change to a newer one? The chipset is now nearly 11 years old :-) Best regards, Erik Xin, Xiaohui wrote: > Erik, > Did you use uhci or ehci controller in qemu? If uhuci, then > Don’t know we are met the same issue or not.
