Vitaly, One of the reasons why the delay was in microseconds was to make sure that the boot time was not adversely affected by the delay we had in setting up the channel. The change to microsecond delay and other changes in this code reduced the time it took to initialize netvsc from 200 milliseconds to about 12 milliseconds. This is important for us as we look at achieving sub-second boot times. The situation you are trying to address are test cases where you are hitting the host with requests that triggers hosts DOS prevention code. Perhaps we could have a hybrid approach: we retain microsecond wait until we hit a threshold and then we use millisecond delays. This way, the normal boot path is still fast while we can handle some of the other cases where the host DOS prevention code kicks in. Regards, K.
