Well, it could be that IRQ delivery still isn't working quite properly somehow (irqpoll shouldn't really be needed if everything is working properly). The adapter only supports PIO0 so you definitely won't get more than about 3 MB/sec and probably a fair bit slower than that, but 20 KB/sec still seems a bit abnormal..
